Didn't know they still put sc's on 4cyl's Go beat up a turbo 4

 

lol I know right...

oh well....teeny engine + teeny blower = still 30mpg (pending how anxious my right foot gets).

Well it turns out my thermostat went when I flushed out the coolant the first time. I knew I should have just replaced it while I was at it. Car runs nice and cool now.

 

how much psi is the blower putting out?

isn't it 10hp=1psi for blown applications and 13hp=1psi on a boosted application? i heard that someplace.

 

ummm blown is boosted. Both superchargers and turbos create "boost". 10hp per psi is only a thumbrule and not the same for all applications.

 

It's putting out 0.6 bar ~ 8.5 psi. The emanage ultimate comes from GReddy pretuned for this setup, and it is very conservative. As the kit comes, it adds about 65-70 hp from what the few others who have the kit got. For now I'm just happy it runs nice and smoothly. Once I break it in a little bit I'll try to pick up a wideband and tune it the right way and pick up a little more power.

clearly since I own a celica I am not a total power junkie...but I'm happy with the purchase...and if anything else it's just a unique setup with a 1.8 liter 11.5:1 compression motor having a supercharger on that redlines at 8450. The sound is music to my ears.
