You may be able to get by with out the idle up device if you set up switch on the accelerator that turns the S/C on when you put your foot down so it is off whenever you are at idle. The belt that I used was a 5 peak v belt. As for boost the only way to control it is to change the pulley size on it or your crank the faster you spin it the more boost you get etc. So changin your boost is a pain in the butt. Don't worry about asking to many questions it doesn't mind me at all.


Cool, I'm understanding more of the actual physical setup more now.

I'd like to do it like you did with a switch on the dash, and only turn it on when I want to and have it off for most of the time driving. I wouldn't need a SC in bumper to bumper traffic. Smile I'd most likely also want to go for a BOV so I don't have the problems you did with the AFM getting hit hard all the time from the returning air.

I'm currently at the "thinking stage". Smile Just thinking on how it's all going to fit together.

I figure the most expensive part is the SC itself. I actually did a search and read on the sc14 last night too, and saw some pics of it and dimensions. It should fit with some sort of custom adapter plate. I also saw an sc12 which is what they run on 1.6l (4agze?), and its a smaller unit.

Also, since you have one, the sc14 has it's own contained oil source doesn't it? It doesn't need to use engine oil like a turbo? And do they need regular oil changes?

ATM, the shopping list would be:

SC14 (You're right, I saw some for $350).
BOV (I'm going to try to find as quiet one as possible).
Idle up device from aircon
Aircon switch for dash
Possible small intercooler. Most likely though.
Plumbing that should be able to be done by an exhaust shop.

Is that almost all I need for a low boost setup (up to half a bar/7PSI)?

Is there a certain distance I have to have the SC from the engine pully wheel? IE: Does the belt have to be a certain length to be able to measure what boost it's getting properly?

I'm also thinking that I could get it setup in a way that I could easily remove it all and put the original pipe back on from the air filter to the throttle body. I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to return it to original state without too much fuss.

Oh yea, before all this would actually start, would this need to be engineered to keep my insurance?

Thanks.
