an adaptor plate will be needed for the SC and TB. But if youre going to be the first to do it, you are the one that is going to be finding all the problem with it. No one knows until they try

I think thats the case on a Redline with the M90. I don't know if someone has done the research/math to know if its the case with an SS/SC and a whipple.

as it is now you can put an egg on top of the sc and close the hood no problem. there shouldnt be any clearance issues.

buy a stick of clay and attatch it to the top of the SC. Close the hood and measure the clay, theres your clearance.

I will have it done as soon as i sell my other car, need the $ to buy all the parts, I put the whipple on a credit card and its on order, but the mounting stuff, and a cooling option are going to come from the funds of selling my 95 eclipse. Yes im going to do it, and i plan to write up a guide for it, with picutres.

First you will need a upgraded cluch ,injectors, and fuel pump.
Then you can start to think about putting the whipple on.

Well for sure the clutch and injectors but I dont know about the fuel pump. Is the stock one already close to being maxed?

you'll need an externally bleeding bypass valve, a method to control A/F, the stage 1 kit, likely a new clutch, adaptor plate, and you'll need to make sure the S/C itself spins the rigth way before blowing your money on the blower

Looking intot his more, this might actualy directly bolt onto our car, one very very very important thing i havent been able to find, is does it spin the same direction as the eaton m-62, you guys might laught but i know some chargers spin clocwise and otehr counter.

Also if youd o this upgrade from what imr eading you can crap the stock intercooler, save space and weight.

All you need in a bypass of some sort to not restrict the maximum boost.

Its been a long day if i left anything out ill correct it later.

Short rundown 1500 for charger possibly all you need + bypass for almsot double the S/C output.

worst case
Charger 1500
bypass ?
Custom bracket 400
tb mount ?
map or maf sensor mount ? <the one ontop of stock m62 charger


Am i missing anything major
