[chrisrundell69]

hey guys, my mate needs some extra power out of his 1996 hilux as he drives thru the hills alot and it struggles to get up them hills. now he doesnt wanna spend too much so ive suggested that he supercharge it with sc12 or sc14 which is better and are they hard to mount? he basically wants some more pulling power for under 1k is this goonna be possible? any help at all would be appreciate maybe even other ideas.
cheers guys

You want the SC14.
The SC12 is the smaller of the two.

Youll have to work out how to mount the SC14 yourselves.
A lot of poeple use aircon compressor mounts, but you may find other existing engine components may get in the way.

Yup, they'll build you a 22R with arseloads of power... if you don't mind paying as much as a 2JZ-GTE conversion.

mate i dont want a company to build it.

just wanted some info on best supercharger to use and how id go mounting it.
looks like sc14 is the way to go.

would it be easiest to just cut off the old brackets and just weld on new ones where its out of the way of everything?

chris: mounting a SC is just the start of long journey - you'd have intercooling, ECU & related hardware, clutch, etc to deal with. I don't think your $1k budget is gong to cover all the bits that go with forced induction.

This would be a good starting point for reading - ignore the fact that it's an 18RG, the principles are the same.

the point of the link was cause they do supercharger kits for the 22r.

but the kits are over $2500

and thanks chuckster i'll start reading it now.

wouldn't HAVE to worry about any of that stuff... 22R = carby, intercooling not totally essential (though a good idea), ditch S/C clutch, use constant trive, related hardware... few pipes, belts, etc etc...

my biggest concern is the fact the SC14 was designed for a 2L, strapping it to a 2.4L won't yield nearly the same results as a 2L. and that with a carby you'll need to go through the pain of re-jetting and adjusting timing...

IMO for $1000 you'd be better off changing diff ratios until you can afford something special, spend a few hundred, and keep the rest till you can afford a decent set up.

for the money id consider just a set of extractors and a cam upgrade. Supercharging just a pita and i believe you would blow your budget. The sc14 would be fine on the motor, just depends on how high you expect to rev.

[chrisrundell69]

wouldnt be revvin it very hard max it would get to is like 5500-6000rpm.
are cams and extractors hard to find for 22R tho?

[ViPeR_NiPPleX]

not hard at all, most of the local cam places stock em. Crow/Wade/etc. Most exhaust shops should be able to find you extractors.

[chrisrundell69]

alright well i'll tell him to look into that cheers mate.
