Hey All,
Am about to embark on a rebuild of the 1GGZE in High IQ. Can anyone make some good suggestions on a supercharger that we can use as the factory one won't stand up to what we have planned. Also, just before anyone mentions it...NO we DO NOT want a turbo
Also, any suggestions on places to find the engine bits including bearings, etc would be great.
Thanks.

Don't go for a Vortech or a Powerdyne, US sites report relaibility problems with both these units and their design means that they only produce their power at high rpm's, so you will get similar power and torque curves to a typical turbo installation.
I take it you want good useful power at low rev's, hence no turbo considerations ?
Then, look at an Eaton M60 or M90 unit, or for a more local flavour, a Terra Charger from Yella Terra, which is a modified Eaton design anyway. Be prepared to spend moochos dineros on any custom S/C installation.
Cheers,
Mitch.
PS: Have you stretched the limits of the 1G-GZE S/C first ? Fitted an overdrive pully ? Custom modded (enlarged) the outlet pipe to raise the boost from the factory 9psi to about 11 psi ?
