Hi Guys...
I just got my celica back from getting a Supercharger fitted to my 18RGEU.
She goes hard from when you turn the key...

Well done.
I gotta see this... when is the next cruize?

So how did you end up wiring the SC clutch and bypass valve?

The SC can just be seen on the RHS of the engine bay.

That looks sooooo good. Looks like a lot of time effort and money went into that. Yeah if you have a few more pics close up of the sc that would be nice Smile

geo cities dont like being linked.. if you took the original link address and pasted in into a browser would have been all good...

One quick question... why have a BOV? you did say i was supercharged not turbo... tell me if i am wrong but the idea of a BOV is to vent excess presure generated on throttle off. but a supercharger wouldnt generate excess presure due to it slowing down on throttle off??? if i am wrong please say so..

Bluewire has an full time supercharge, from when you turn the key and no cluch for the superchager, so the presure got to go out while the butterfly is shut..... not just an wank factor. Laughing
Ill get some mor pics up soon dudes....
