ULTIMATE BUMP!
I've been talking to the builder of this baby.

running over 600bhp at just 1.3 bar boost at 2krpm with no Laaaaaaahhhhhhg

Is that the twin charged celi that did the hill climb a year or two ago?

No its Supercharged built in the netherlands. Not the same orange one you are referring to.

i take it the supercharger is at the end of that pipe that branches off the turbo intake

I believe so. Can't get any more pictures but it has a eaton M62 Supercharger and a GT40 Turbo barrel charge cooled, relocated alternator.

i make 1.9 bar in first gear XD

Alternator located under the inlet manifold, SC under the Turbo. Very tight, very neat and very compact.

build by Suprasport My previous car served as kind of a mock-up on this beauty to see if it would all fit. Powersteering got discarded and replaced with an electric ps from a sw20 mr2

that car is for sale by the way......somewhere in the low 20000 range (in euro's)

Was this yours?
Im talking to Suprasport about this build. I know he's doing a MR2 now. How comes you're selling it?

no, it's not my car. When Arnout was building the engine, my car was in his shop for an engineswap. he did some testfitting and measuring on my car.
The owner of the car hardly drives it, guess that's the reason for selling

Ahh I see. The engine has now been sold and the ST205 is being reverted to stock.

Yeah, but 1.3bar for a supercharger is crazy. For a turbo 1.9 isn't incredibly high; not knocking your engine (no pun intended), just that this supercharger seems over the top.

Whats the point in all this can anyone tell me? in a celica??? is it some drag car or a rally/race car, what? If you want response AND big power at the same time are you really going to sacrifice upsetting the handling with all that weight in the already front heavy understeering plow throughing chassis for the sake of it? Would it not be smarter to adjust his engine management, mechanical tuning and his own driving to suit a big turbo setup?

Obviously this guy had more dollars than sense in trying to twin charge a celica. It wont help him drive faster around a circuit, the response isnt needed for a drag race when you have a clutch to drop.

All im saying is... you gotta be nuts to wanna build this car... not saying it isnt gonna be stupidly fast, and loose on those 4 wheels, but i see it could be achieved better with more conventional ways

with the sort of money invested in that car, wouldnt you rather see some next level antilag?

and by anti lag i mean the one with the external combustion chamber and the fancy jet turbine engine sh*t that keeps ur turbo spooled whatever whenever,

not the sh*tty little rev limiter bang bang trick

600hp @2000 is wow? the result of all that engineering work is all its achieved?


What about a *insert hp* turbo spooling at idle?

the start of the thread with the front wheel celica and the "Plus Z" thing is a cool little way to add pep to a grocery gogetter


but this highjack with the twin charging, i see way more dollars than sense

I have an extra 3rd gen 3sge laying around and might just supercharge it for the hell of it. Just cause it would be different.. now twin charging just sounds like a waste of money compared to a anti lag set up which your going to get more out of..
