Supercharged FC RX-7

[Cordtus]

There is no "kit" for these. You build it yourself. This isn't your moms Nissan....

[superteddy94]

where'd you get this supercharger?

[xblade6500]

Is that the original radio I see? Congrats

[BruzedHQ]

nice start up, whats it idle at when its warm?

[DaedalusZero]

If you don't rev the shit out of a cold engine like every other dipshit on YouTube, you're not rolling like a boss. 

[Bo0stLee]

I'd have to say that this is THE FIRST fc video I've watched, where someone had a full tank of gas. HiFive to you sir!

[logicalbomb]

So where did you pick up that charger, and how was the conversion?

[Draelren]

GXL it looks like with a t2 hood?

What's the supercharger kit?

[bamper42069]

Wish i had that much gas in my FC.

[DivineWindSerpent]

Hope you put some good bearings in there, those rotors are gonna break 9000 real quick with a supercharger. What kit did you use? I've been looking for a supercharger kit for my FC.

@DivineWindSerpent

The Paxton SN-89 kit running a 3.75" pulley will hit around 9PSI boost at 7,000RPM. That is the rev limit on a S4 13b and it is also the max boost you should put on a non-upgraded Sn-89.

All motors will eventually fail if you over-rev it by 2,000RPM (supercharged or not). I have no idea where you got the idea that he would rev that high. And I have no idea where you got all this talk about bearings failing in Rotary engines. Maybe Gran Turismo?

[DivineWindSerpent]

@rockyzee racingbeat search on google

There are race bearings designed for the application of raving a rotary up to 10,000 rpm. A supercharger I could certainly see hitting 9000 in a hurry. Putting those race bearings in gives him more leeway to react to the supercharger, as well as the supercharger reacting to him. Additionally since his power should be sitting a bit higher in the rev band now, race bears and apex seals ect, should be nice to have.

[DivineWindSerpent]

Also there's no reason to be nasty or suggest my car knowledge is attained simply from Gran Turismo, especially if you aren't sure if I can then provide a coherent response to your barb. If you have an answer to my question, its appericiated, but there's no reason to insult my comment if you don't understand it. Racingbeat has some awesome parts designed to break the 7000 rev limit. Cheers.

[donkeykong132]

make a vid of you doing a couple of runs! lol. clean fc man

[crazygook55]

Get a conquest tsi you dumbass.

[thash1127]

can you put a super charger on a stock 1991 13B, does the motor have to be built up for the supercharger? like apex seals and other things?

[djayangel]

@thash1127 To get full function out of it yea but I dont believe it be necessary. Highly Recommended porting tho.

[ReaperFC3]

That looks like my FC, thats is a nice step up by the way i was thinking going supercharger later on how much was it

[iamxeddiex]

Wouldn't you call this a procharger? Stats needed please!

FC3S FTW!

[stangalltheway]

Procharger is a type of supercharger.

centrifugals are still superchargers.

[mikemrrymn]

Hey I got this kit off this guy and put it in my 87.. then I sold it.. great kit good fun while it lasted...

[openshot]

where did you get that and do they sell them for the 12A

[lambolp640t]

i too own an fc and yours is up to par

[2346]

whats more realiable fc or the fd?

[buhrrito]

both. just depending on how you treat it and take care of it

[2346]

im a fan of rotaries cause i think pistons are confsuing

[buhrrito]

hell yeah they are!!!

i love the rotary as well. but i also like the inline 6. as in BMW's I6 and the 2jz/1jz.

something you dont see everyday

[heith85]

wow i really dont care what you like

[buhrrito]

wow who asked you

[psmwag03]

[86touge]

[kcdclan]

[kyhjfkuhjdcfkhgk]

[buhrrito]

MAZDATRIX!!!

[nommyz]

How does she go without an intercooler mate ?

Boost mustn be huge ?

Or are you running water injection or something ?

Cheers - nom

[diaryofthedead]

god i love sintrifical superchargers =]

[Parag0n]

gotta pop the hood

[Nateb123]

Actually, notice the blue text on the supercharger, it actually says Paxton, so there you go.

[Nateb123]

I think there's a Paxton supercharging kit for the 13b engine...

[nopo303]

were the hell did u get that and how much $ and how much psi

[joefd3s]

hey bud if your showing a super charger rev the car past 2000rpm you girl!

[lanevo343]

notice the cold engine? fail.

[7mmkIII]

its called the s4 temp gauge, thats at full operating temp, they only hit about 1/4 of the gauge....try and learn something before you ethug....

[lanevo343]

You two must be brothers.

[RotaryKnight]

7mmkill

the temp gauge is at cold.....its the top right gauge.

The S5 temp gauge goes only 1/4 for normal and has only 3 setting cold normal and overheating. A S4 temp gauge is just like any other normal temp guage, it increases nominal steppings.

[thash1127]

@lanevo343 hahah, warm up the car and if you plan on reving it, warm it up to when the neddle is right in the middle, than turn it off. start your little movie and rev that shit!

[jmejia001199]

as lanevo343 says, the motor was cold, and it was the very first start up....hence the non-revy-ness of the vid.

[djayangel]

@jmejia001199 That's a clear point...Good job on the FC man. I honestly could say I really respect that conversion.

[somebody5788]

@joefd3s cold revving for the lose... and first start up revving for the lose too...

[sonick117x]

what supercharger is that and where could i find out more on how you did this?

[Infidel80]

Props for originality! Any idea what sort of power it's producing?
