Jackson Air/Water Intercooler Kit for 94-00 Mazda Miata 1.8L (for use w/JACKSON RACING Supercharger for our ludes??

I really see no reason why it couldn't. Just it might take some time and handy work but anything is possible. That looks like it would take up a lot less room than an air to air IC.

 

I thinking about doing this.. But for grand.. Hmm.

 

you can get kits cheaper than that. Or even the same kit for $320 less

or if you look around there are pages on how to ghetofab your own.

 

Thanks man.. I am gonna try to do this.. I got big bonus cash coming and I will do a write up on this.

 

maybe i don't know enough about JRSC on our h22 but i thought they were a complete replacement for the intake manifold?? or is that bseries only?

 

yeah its a complete replacement.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that will not work with the lude kit. The Miata kit mounts the blower on the front of the engine and routes the pressurized air via a charge pipe from the blower to the throttle body. The air/water intercooler for the Miata kit mounts inline in the charge pipe.

The JRSC kit for the lude is COMPLETELY different, mounting the blower directly on top of the intake manifold. There is no charge pipe.

Wow, you need to do a lot of research. The JRSC kit for the lude only replaces the upper intake plenum (where the blower resides), not the lower runners.

 

Ok can we fabricate the water injection kit?

Prelude JRSC:

 

i dont know why but seeing JRSC in a 4th gen always makes me feel fuzzy inside!!

 

Are you making an off topic comment or referring to my picture? That's a picture of my blower on my 5th gen.

 

hahhaha. sorry i thought it was funny.

BACK ON TOPIC!

 

yeah sorry i thought it was 4th gen and sorry to get off topic!!

 

i dont think you will be able to use any type of intercooler with that setup. the way the supercharger mounts makes it pretty impossible unless jackson racing fabricates an intercooler that mounts between the supercharger and intake manifold it would be very difficult to do such a thing. i mean how do you plan on routing the air from the supercharger to the intake manifold. just asking.

 

It can be done. A guy on preludeonline modified a stock lower intake piece to incorporate an air/water core. The blower bolted right up to it and he had it running, but unfortunately never got a chance to dyno it or even check his intake air temps to see if it helped. I've posted a link to it in a past thread.

 

sure it can be done if you got the skill

 

haha dave you crack me up

you can clearly tell a 4th and 5th gen engine bay apart, but i can see how one can get confused, dave removed his CC so one would think its a 4th gen engine bay
