just as the title says.. is this possible.. an fmic for a vortec sc.. i know this may seem stupid..im just wondering if its possible without a ton of trouble.. i have a customer who wants one and im trying how to throw one together

thanks.. if anyone has done this please send pics

 

Yes, it should be possible with any centrifical supercharger, and is even possible with a roots charger like the JR. It's just like routing one for a turbo.

 

I'd like to see someone efficiently make a fmic work on a jr blower. Sorry for thread jacking

I just did some searching but couldnt find it, I know I read some things about it, but I can't really think of any way to make it work, so untill I find it, let's say it cant be done lol.

 

It can be done, its just really a pain in the ***, and a lot of aluminum fabrication/welding has to be done. By the time the boosted air gets into the motor I think you lose to much psi, and to make up for it, you have to spin the blower faster(jr blowers dont like spinning to fast ).

 

someones gotta make one.. or should i just have him buy a small fmic and see if i cant get some tubing bent?

 

yea ive seen that actually... i guess i know its possible im just wondering if theres a pre fabed ready to bolt in kit.. it would be so nice..lol

betta then making one from scratch

 

There isn't a bolt on kit because hardly anybody uses those junk-*** vortech blowers, much less start making aftermarket parts for them. Yes, you can clock the compressor cover on it just like a turbo, but as others have said it's a waste of money. If he wants the front mount intercooler look, go find a polished aluminum heat exchanger for the front grill.

 

why not use the air to water aftercooler???? or does the cust want to look cool?

 

There is a kit made by Procharger where the sc is located in the a/c area,
Makes FMIC easy. If you can get the kit without the sc and use the vortech, your good to go.





Hope this helps.

i like the procharger!

 

i had a vortech biggest pain in the *** for install. and the belt change everyother month also pita.

 

that AC idea is cool as hell, but looks like a PITA to install.....
