Id vote for a 120 shot and you should take it to the track.  Nothing like having had one of the fastest berettas on the board.  Were you around for BerettaMX?  He went 13.34 before the motor blew.

no but sure would be interesting and thats why it's on the list.  i have the feeling that my motor would probably do the eight mile but the quarter is pushin it.  th leaf charger is already about half done i just need to figure out a mounting system to fit it under the hood it is belt driven of the serpintine and im think about the spot where the ac compressor is or jack shafting it over the the other side of the block. possibly using an intermediate (or just one really long shaft to put it over near the drivers front.for the tracks i would probably just make a sort of duallie wheel outside the body lines. that or chain drive them and weld the stering column and split the brakes for a sort of skid steer.

the buz jets would be some 60-100 lb thrust models so you would 600-1000 pounds of thrust. the intake manifold would run shorter runners with twin logs for front and backmerging in a y for the TB no egr just extra work maybe machine out the tb as well wth a definate port job i may do this after the leaf charger and before the nitrous tracks or however long the engine holds out.

screw the leafcharger i just got my hands on a $250 eaton!!!!!!!!

[leadfoot93]

ok well here's the skinny,  I have a $225 eaton m90 out of a 99 buick regal.  that is bolted to a piece of Mik 6 6061 aluminum that is welded to the UIM.  there is an external blow off valve that is adjustable and set to about 3-5 psi boost.  There is a new high flow/pressure fuel pump and a vortech 12:1 FMU.  The IAT sensor was switched for the one out of a '90 turbo sunbird which is threaded and into a block off plate in the place of the old throttle body location.  the throtle body was moved up to the neck on the supercharger and the cable bracket was moved accordingly.  I am making a sheet metal guard which will have a bunch of 3/4 inch holes cut in it and chromed to go over the supercharger which sticks sideways out of the center of hte hood.  The car will be painted a nice flat black with red pinstriping that says "BLOW ME" across the back bumper or filler panel.  Can any of you guys think of anything that could be wrong or wouldn't work properly about this set up?  I know the blow off valve will be open quite often and the tunning won't be perfect but i'm hoping to take it to someone that can do a good burn on it eventualy to get everything straightened out.

A BOV does not set the boost pressure  

[leadfoot93]

i know it's there to prevent surging i'm thinking that i could try to use it to leak pressure when i get up to what i want so as not to have to much.  My thinking was if it's boost referanced and adjustable from 0-15 psi like the one i'm looking at getting i could use it to let the excess pressure go.  Any suggestions on a better way to do this are welcome as i will admit this is the one thing i can't quite figure out.

I apologize for my moron-ness i i have just realized that a small modification to my adapter plate will allow me to use the stock bypass valve on the M90and a days worth of work should solve the problem and get rid of my parasitic loss as well

You need to use different size pulleys to accomplish this.
