Look for a member here called Teruyume, only one here with a Blitz SC, I believe...

Yeah it has a controller that allows no boost, or 2 or three levels of boost. Pretty fancy!

Nice, but what Im now trying to say is that, if there is Off, Low, Med, High....

Is there Very High? Super High? Set your own boost High?

Maybe I'm just high right now? lol

No seriously I would want to have atleast the capability to have it make up to 200hp instead of what? 130?

erm there's a physical limitation to how much boost a supercharger can make, you could increase that by overdriving the pulley, but then again you can probably only push it so much over spec before it loses efficiency/overheats and dies.

Ok, that does make sense, but then I guess that would mean I myself would just want a S/C that can produce more boost for our engine.

Would that be to much to ask for since a 20-30% increase just doesn't cut it for a few $$$$....?

It's totally possible, but remember that this blitz SC has been chosen/engineered to be a best fit for our engine. You could strap on a bigger one, but its specifications may not be suitable for the engine, and create trouble down the line, especially if the engine's internals are not strenghtened. By all means, be a pioneer and try

The Blitz SC is exactly what it is marketed to be - a bolt-on supercharger. Which means that they've increased horsepower with an eye on engine longevity based on the components that are inside the engine, and so the boost is mild.

The Vios Turbo (turbocharged 1NZ) in Thailand makes only 150-ish and that is a factory job.

You do want to drive your car for more than a few hundred miles/kilometres before a hole is punched out one side of the engine block, don't you?

The problem with turbo setups is that its so easy to get greedy and wind up the boost for just the bit more power. But the rest of the components, are they up to it? And 200hp sounds like a ground up rebuild to me......

Oh, don't forget to leave a bit of money for brake upgrades. In fact, do the brakes first.

the theoratical ideal compression ratio after boost is 12~14:1
the stock engine is about 10.5 to 11:1 depend on ca or us or jp model.

if u have a 6psi of boost ur engine will be around 16:1 compression ratio. that will be increase of thermal efficiency, required intercooler. and low compression ratio. usually a 8:1 compression piston, will be able to work with a 8~12 PSI of boost. but still wut getting into your engine is about 14:1 compression ratio.

to get over that u will need reenforced con-rod and crank and probably cylinder sleeves.

so in conclusion:
if u want HP not just get more boost, i need to get ur engine to ideal compression ratio (NOT more boost = more HP)

Not a bad price John, not bad at all... especially after looking at the dyno sheet!

not horribly priced, we'll see what else comes along.

I like the ability to go from 0 to level 1 to level 2 boost though... and perhaps have a pulley made for a little extra? :)

the benefit of the blitz supercharger is that it has already been on the market in japan for years, so you aren't taking a chance on a product that is new...just something to think about. cheaper is rarely going to be better when it comes to forced induction.
