Anyone have any clue if a supercharger will be, or if ever, be comming for the US spec Lancer, all my other cars have been turbo, i think want to try a SuperC now.

Any info would be appricated =) thanks!

 

None being made so far as I know. Create a demand. p already e-mailed jackson racing and was flatly denied. Can't hurt to try again.

 

best thing to do is to continue the demand by emailing companies and everntually it will come...i have been emailing alot of people about aftermarket parts to come out....just help us out by emailing companies

 

turbo is the way to go, more ban for the buck + you can get a lot of power with turbo. but the down side to turbo is you have to take care of it.

 

Go buy a s/c and find a shop to fab the rest. They arent't that complex.

 

Centrifugal or Roots?

 

I'd go centrifugal

 

hehe im going to wait for the lancer SuperC, if i just bought a supercharger and had someone fit it, i would probably get a durango or a honda s2000 on by mistake, LOL

How do you figure that?

 

I found this supercharger on the net.....would that be able to fit onto our lancer?

Been asked before. Same exact SC too if I remember right. The response was that it may, but it would probably require a few mods to fit the 4g94. It's on a 4g93 at least. Close but no cigar would be my answer I guess. At least not a direct fit like a 4g94 specific SC would be.

 

What's the difference between centrifugal and roots?

 

I'm interested in that answer too... I mean, if I stray from NA, it will be for a SC, not a TC. SC is just lower on the headache factor, and lacks (I've heard) the lag. Exactly what would be needed for a SC upgrade, if one could be obtained? What kind of mechanic or shop should I be looking at for a custom (?) fitted SC?

 

can anyone explain the difference between roots and centrifugal ???...

 

I'm going to do some research here, but it seems to me like the mating points on the head ought to be the same, and the engine is oriented the same way, as well, the airbox is probably quite similar, so this thing ought to fit.

I will post an update once i have tracked down info either way on this
