SC14 4agze - Part 1

[Jason]

I decided to write this along with the other 4age articles because there is very little info floating around other than some pics... so here we go

The setup im will be running is a sc14 supercharger, XF 70mm throttle body running before the s/c. I was originally planning to run it after for increases response but there have been some reports of breaking s/c drive axels don't ask me I just herd it from some one...

Ok what you will need

Cut n shut manifold - Without TB attached
2X - M8 x 30mm bolts
Random stud to fit large block thread - 30mm
Washer to fit all
7.5mm plate that will cover the bolt holes of the SC bracket
Grinder
Drill Bits ect

The 1st problem I encounter when I test fitted the supercharger and the manifold was that they did not clear. To solve this I bolt grinded down the manifold and the sc inlet, as well as move the mount out from the block

For this I used some random metal bracket I got from Bunning that was about 7.5mm thick, and made it into a big washer.

After you dill all the holes mount it to the block, if you haven't already cut off the annoying mount that goes right on were the engine mount goes. And mount it with the m8 bolts and studs

[Jason]

Now attatch the supercharger with inlet onto the braket, then bolt on the manifold. Pull the supercharger up as far as it can go and mark where it touches on both.

The metal is pretty thick on bother, but dont go crazy you will still want atleast half of the metal on there. I ground down about 3-5mm on both.

[Jason]

Just keep grinding little bits at a time until it fits just right


Next will be either fitting the TB or making the support braket for the SC, stay tuned

not trying to cut youre grass dude but heres a AW11 setup, wrote this article almost a year ago.



the 4age throttle body is a good enough upgrade, if you use the GZE standard ecu etc you can even use a 3sge st162 throttle body and the cold idle works

Nice Job dude, I'll get round to writing one up on my conversionv after i've finished.

[mattysshop]

thats fair enough, but he is doing it, and you might notice some people do things better than others.. 4age throttle body upgrade is good... but won't have anywhere near the potential of the sc14 upgrade

[mattysshop]

in short... Jason keep up the good work!

hmmm you see when i seacher for SC14 to 4agze i got nothing... o well. Also im unsing a NA intake. In that arcticle it only using the stock intake which is really poor But doing it the way im doing there are more issues, many space and trying to work around the much larger bigport intake, theres a reason why the gze intakes are so gay.

thanks mattyshop

just like to note aswell i am using a new ecu, i dont think the stock would like this upgrade very much hehehe

pps... on the way i set this up if there is to much lag with the TB before the SC i can always attach it to the intake

[verm69]

does anyone see any issues with using the stock GZE inlet rather than using one as above???

just want to do a charger upgrade (mine may be rooted...) and the bigger TB upgrade that mattysshop wrote up...

can do the mods to put the charger on and just plumb it in??

[mattysshop]

aside from it's gay and really needs some attention paid to it... no not really
