Supercharge This! How do you keep a engine cool?
I don't wanna sound stupid or but can an intercooler be hooked up to a supercharger? I heard that if its a centerfugal supercharger than it can. What about roots based systems? If you can't hook one up then how do you cool a supercharged engine? I have a b16a2 and I'm going with a supercharger over turbo. If you have one let me know how you keep your engine temps down and let me know a little bout if it's reliable. You got an si holla. :cigar:

i know jackson racing makes fmic for their SC's. As for Vortech...I have no clue. A SC is lots more reliable than a turbo and easier to mantain...unfortunately theres not as much "oomf" as with a turbo. I originally wanted a SC but then decided on turbo. I really should get the sc though...im rambling again :D

jackson racing makes an FMIC for their SC? ive never seen it. ive only seen some custom made FMIC setup for the JRSC that some guy did - never heard much about it though.
vortech uses an "aftercooler". SC runs off the intake.....its not using the same hot exhaust gases as a turbo does - hence overheating isnt as much of a problem Vortech w/o Aftercooler ![]() Adds 58 horsepower Adds 31 ft/lbs of torque 6-6.5 PSIG Includes V-5 SQ G-Trim supercharger Vortech w/ Aftercooler (big box looking thing, cant miss it) ![]() Adds 117 horsepower Adds 64 ft/lbs of torque 8-9 PSIG Includes V-5 SQ G-Trim supercharger and Maxflow Powercooler |
went to JR's site....they say nothing about an FMIC for honda/acura apps.....they have an oil cooler kit though :D
