I have been working with a shop here in my home town that specialize's in corvette's, xtrememotorsports.com to be exact. And they are going to help me out with alot of things, but that is another story. Anyway back to topic.
My ? is does anyone think that a eaton m90 of a grand prix would be enough for this motor. Before you jump to no, it was made for a v-6, cause i know that. I am feeding it with two borg warner s200 turbo's. I was at work today and was reading a fast ford's and mustangs mag and come across a very extensive article on compound charging. Well in there i saw that the effenciency of the supercharger went way up.
It went on to say that they had 11 psi from the sc'er and 7 psi from the turbo's. And they're expectations combined was of course 18 psi, but what actually happened was a final manifold pressure was 23 psi. And basically what i gathered from this is that the turbo's did such a good job at raiseing the efficiency of the sc'er so it didnt have to work as hard to scavage air it put out 5 psi more at cooler temps. Oh the manifold air temp was only 88 degrees also.
I know of a couple companies that use the m90 for mustangs and such, and i know it is a good shot smaller than a 6.0 but at lower boost levels and being force fed by two turbo's i was wondering if the m90 would be capable of keeping up. What ya think????? Thanks.
My question is why? I mean yea Super charged will be instant boost but the 6.0 block will provide plenty of low end and small turbos spool extremely fast on v8s. You essentially have twin supra motors, one for each turbo (3.0L/Turbo).
Save your money on the amount of fab work it would take to do this and just turbo it if you want boost.
