For everyone contacting KB, whipple, etc...they won't sell just units or try making kits. You either have to bite the bullet and buy a kit for a car you don't have and make it a kit for your LSJ or find one on eBay or somewhere, which will most likely be a kit anyways.

Just to let you know, sprintex is made by autorotor. Autorotor owns the patent for the lysholm twinscrew. Opcon is a division of autorotor and a sister company of laminova, which makes the cores for our water to air intercooler systems. KB is made by autorotor and so is whipple.

For a very informational thread about twinscrews, just go to:

i was actually writing it in hopes that someone would call bs and make themselves look like a fool you just took the bait =) thats why i said i just pulled this out of my ass its called sarcasm

 

hey asshats quit arguing about that garbage and lets get something going here with the topic STAY ON TASK , lol ok now do you think a t3 turbo would be good for us bc i know where to get them cheap or is that too small of a turbo

 

t3/t4 would probably be best because the hotside is the t3 so it will spool up faster and the cold side has the capability of a t4 power...

Also, I have been on topic, everyone wants to freaking question everything.

 

i have a m90 on the way and as soon as sprintex gives me a call back ill have one of there chargers on the way too then we will see how much hp difference is between the 2 something tells me its going to be real close i bet within 15 hp of each other

question is the $ to $ ratio going to be worth it something tells me that its going to be a big fat NO 275 hp from a m90 for 700 bucks or 290 hp from a twin screw for 2000 ...hmm time will tell

btw i think im really going to end up ******* myself financially with this testing if it turns out the way i think it will....who is going to buy a twin screw if it does turn out like i predict maybe i could find someone who is a hardcore lysholm fan who would be willing to part with 2000 bucks for 10 hp .....the first person ill ask would be vandy though hahaha =P

 

It would also take a 3.57" pulley. Good luck getting that to fit on top with the adapter plate and hopefully you can find or have a belt longe enough to fit.

Actually if you tell it to use the M62 at 12.5 psi it says it would require a 3.63" pulley and would produce 238 hp with the 6500 max rpm and 256 with 7K.

 

are you kidding me, do you know how to write in proper english because when you write something you need to include a subject. You didn't state a subject and thus we would have to refer back to the previous posts which is about the M90. So your post was to be about a M90 in which ALL your information was way off.

Are you sure you're even old enough to drive?! I didn't fall for anything, you pulled **** off a site and tried coming up and making it look like you were smart or something in which you never mentioned you were talking about twinscrews.

Also, it shows you don't even know how all the companies are interlinked by posting that sprintex link...

 

Whipple now makes their s/c's in house. They stoped importing the Lysholm in 2004.

 

OMG, you paid $700 for a M90, do you even know how to shop around, lol

I can get a M90 Gen V for $200!!! oh god, you got raped sooo bad! Also, no twinscrew will give you 290 unless you're not tuning it right or it is smaller than 1L, obviously you don't read anything! There is a 1.3L KB Cobalt with stock internals, exhaust etc making 350/340 with 60s and tuning...you might overlook this anyways since it is you but oh well...keep pissing money away, lol

 

Where did you hear that? EATON is now even tied with Opcon...so EATON is working on their own twinscrews...

 

Its brand new dude ....im not going to put a ebay charger on my car

 

The ones I was getting were less than 1k miles on them. I'd return it if I were you and just let me know and I'd get it to ya, it's a lot of money to throw around for testing.

 

READ MENG http://www.whipplesuperchargers.com/....asp?PageID=80

and it was lysholm technologies not opcon that is now under the eaton umbrella a correction to earlier info

well i did that once before im prolly going to end up keeping it on the car but that is certainly good info in case this m90 does work out ..im sure you could prolly make some decent $$$ supplying folks with good m90`s

 

i can get a t3/t4 turbo brand new for 375.00 should i bite or is this a waste of money

 

if u can find a manifold that it will bolt to

 

when are you going to put on the m90 and your doing this with the ss/sc right just making sure

 

someone stated we could use the manifold for the saab true or not

 

Don't forget that you have to also purchase/make a turbo manifold, piping, wastgate, BOV, and possibly a new IC.

 

yes this will be the sssc as i have a dayjob that keeps me very busy it going to be some time, also while i have the motor out im going to be taking care of a few other things to help keep the motor reliable during this testing phase...patience danielsan

 

ok saab manifold if it works 200.00 at most piping 150 wastegate have no idea but cant be more than the turbo bov 250 at most and new ic is gonna be the bitch , new clutch and new axles thats about $3,000 im down

 

couldnt we just use the factory ic

 

here is a typical setup for probably the lsj

Turbo
manifold
downpipe
dump pipe
wastgate
bov
piping of some kind i dont think we will have to use an aftermarket intercooler if we are running low boost however adding an additional intercooler such as air to air might help us over all on the heat.
Bigger injectors more then likely
and thats all i can think of.

now if i was doing this and doing a turbo setup i would just do
all the above and upgrade the fuel system
intercooler sprayer
new axels
clutch

Now one thing everyone is going to have to understand with the lsj engine is mor ethen likely we are going to have to vent the air from the bov back into the intake system i dont know how hahn or badgrl1 did it i know you can get it to vent just got to tune it right.

 

I think you're thinking too much in the mindset of money and not in the mindset of reaching a goal. When you think of money so much, you're not going to do a proper setup. Buying a saab manifold cause it's cheap isn't necessarily what you want.

If you're trying to do a saab 9-3 setup w/the manifold and turbocharger, remember that it's a small TD04 Mitsubishi turbocharger. Very responsive but will it give you the power you're looking for?

Also mind you the flange on the saab manifold is triangular, if you didn't use the TD04 charger, you'd have to find a turbocharger with that same flange type in order to fit it. Remember too that you can't use an external wastegate cause it doesn't have an extension off the manifold to utilize an external wastegate.

There is much more I think you need to learn about setting up a custom turbo setup just from some of your responses. I have write ups to help you if you want to read them to give you a much better idea of what is going on and what you need as a full out system. It's much more than a BOV, turbo, manifold and some piping. There is alot of thought that needs to go in picking certain parts, deciding on what you need to achieve a certain amount of power, what you need to mainain your system and the list goes on.

So I will say this again, if you are worried about money and finding the cheapest parts, I highly suggest not doing this. If you feel that you can't handle the maintenance of a turbo setup whether it's possible fixing a boost leak or fixing a blown oil seal, I suggest not doing this. If you honestly do not understand how all all the parts you are buying works (which is not a bad thing, you can always learn), I highly suggest either not doing this or putting this plan on hold till you are mentally ready.
