Here is the efficiency map of the M62 Im using..


Calculations so I know how much boost I will be making:

Crank Pulley Circumferance = cm 12.446 - 4.9"
S/C Pulley Circumferance = cm -6.60 - 2.6"
Ratio = 1.885 / 1 = 1.885

@ 6500 rpm = 12,257 S/C rpm

M62 supercharger output capacity = 1 L/ rpm = 12,257 L
(LPM*.03531 = CFM) = 432 CFM of air

2.5 engine can inhale 252.6 CFM of air

Excess air = 432 – 252.6 = 180 “boosted” CFM

Boost = excess CFM / normal CFM * atmospheric pressure
180 / 252.6 * 14.7 = 10.5 PSI pounds boost


So I should be getting around 9-10 PSI of intercooled boost.

Well long time no update too many things in the way...

The E34 winter car is running like a champ car is like a german tank in the snow!! I'm impressed...

With that out of the way I have been getting ready to jump back in my SC project..but its still very cold so for now Im gathering more parts..

A bit more welding and building the plate and 3" pipe output of the charger






picked up a used and very very cheap in very good condition Jetta 2.0T intercooler

3" in and 3" out should be perfect for my moderate 7PSI charger setup



picked up a Auto tensionner brand new from ebay its for a 1.9L saturn




more to come....
