I have the opportunity to pick up a rebuilt (by a reputible shop) m62. I know its a little larger than the m45 but is it harder to tune than it as well? Im not that knowledgeable about superchargers, have always been a turbo guy.
I have have a mhi 16g turbo left from one of my old setups on the Talon but figured it may be a little small for the 2.4. I would like to make it as painless as possible for tuning. I dont want to have to play with it everyday to get it to run right on the street, that was my reason for getting rid of the Talon.
I have intercoolers and piping, so thats not an issue.
Im going to keep my eye out for a set of brown top injetors but Im not sure if they are right for the car.
Ive read that 99 has different injectors then 95-98, is this true? I assume the difference is low and high impedence? If so, is a resister box all that is needed?
Thanks for the help,
Thomas

actually..the engine you speak of was made from an LGO..he said LD9 , which isnt possible to do.
and you say its not worth it ? can you show me another Jbody with more NA 4cyl hp ?

well since you cant stroke an ld9 to a 2.6 i guess that only leaves 2 options 
Anything is possible. The 2.0 in my Talon was stroked to a 2.3. Custom length rods, custom height pistons and bored just right.....
Shouldnt take too much to do on a ld9. 0.010" shorter pistons and 0.040" larger diamter pistons should be sufficient to make a 2.6.

rods and pistons are not enough..in order to STROKE an engine you have to INCREASE THE STROKE..that means you have to change the CRANK with one that has a longer stroke
there are no cranks for the LD9 that have a longer stroke, period
and no, boring an LD9 out .040 will not make it a 2.6 either..youll have to bore out alot more than that
so just stick with boost and youll be fine

exactly what i was going to say. piston height has nothing to do with stroke.

All stock...........lol.
You can stroke with different rods and pistons but in order for it to actually be stroked that way the crank must be offset ground. My machinist races boats for a living and he told me all about it. THAT BEING SAID it would cost an assload of money for the custom rods. 2.4 crank 2.3 block ftw!
