Have I reached the limits of an SC12?

I've decided I'm happy with the power for now, I think it's time to enjoy it

Good on ya. Its hard to know when to stop sometimes, although there is nothing wrong with experimenting until you're happy

.
Cheers, Nick

Ben would probably argue that experimenting is exactly what he has been doing since mid-2004 when he started down this track

Good work Ben

Sweet effort! if later you decide on more grunt you could go with a set of cams to make more use of the air flow your SC is providing

Man that's a great result! Hopefully with some fixing/tweaking I can raise mine to the 110-115kw atw level

Here's mine with the 5500rpm drop off, dyno operator didn't bother to goto redline...

My car has a fairly restrictive intake and exhaust at the moment, and is not acheiving full boost from the 175mm pulley + ARC topmount.

Ben: Have you tried replacing the oil in the supercharger? That sometimes gives you an extra psi ot so.

The oil is fairly fresh, so I don't think that would help.

I got a fresh run today, with a tight belt and a cool intercooler, I made a little more (most importantly the dip is gone).
