Supercharger INSTALLED!!!! and story
Friday, July 21, 2006 10:21 PM
Yea so i got my supercharger installed and all today and was drivin around seemed like everything was goin good......so i hooked up my boost gauge to see wut im running.....

Well i went for another drive so check out the boost......it didn't even go past 0 cuz i have a gauge that measures vac and boost....the damn thing didn't even go past 0.....so i don't even think im freekin boostin at all.....so i was pissed as @!#$......so my buds call me to go ride around the town but they don't know i have the supercharger in..

Buddies Cars:
Integra GSR (racing intake mani, bigger tb, exhaust, intake, vtec controler....ect.....ect)
GTI VR6 (intake, exhaust)

so we all jump on the interstate and start racing at a 40mph roll which sucks cuz i don't even know if im boostin or not......i mean i could feel it a bit but im holdin on the steering wheel so i don't notice a hudge diff or so i thought.......

all and all.....

GSR - 2 car lengths
VR6 - 3 car lengths

I Think I Was Boostin!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool.. but this thread will get locked because it involves racing on the highway.

Did you use clamps on hoses for the boost gauge? If you don't suction holds the line closed but boost will leak right past. Check that.

BTW, Fuq a VR6, my diesel golf would beat you ^_^

You couldn't tell if you were making boost with a supercharger?

Wow...

I hope you didn't install this thing yourself!

By guess is that you tapped the wrong place for your boost gauge. Did you run it off the FPR or off the bypass valve. Anything you read before the manifold won't read boost it will always read 0 when boosting. Tap into the hose that runs from the FPR and you'll see boost.
