Supercharger folks, come see
I did the install today, E-bay didn't pay off. I have a universal bypass valve. The activation line on top of it, where does it go?
Where do I get the disc for thr FMU? What one needs to be in there with a 9# and 30lb injectors? Should the pully on the charger have a little slack it? If I rock it back and forth? Thank guys, I wanted heads buy I'll settle for what I have. |
Dude
I'am not one for buying anything on E-Bay ( but I don't no either ) RELAX ,and all your questions will be answered . I no
It must be frustrating for you , and you want to complete it . there are so many on this board that will be able to help you . big thing is let it sit till you get it right . these guys will set you up right ;) |
sorry
look at me talking to you like your bran new !! LOL sorry :rolleyes:
|
Be more detailed with your bypass valve questions and I will be able to help you out , it does not matter if it is universal as long as it is functionining properly , however , it may require a custom install . As for the fmu , throw it in the woods as far as you can and forget about it , I have heard too many storys about people not being able to get their boosted stang tuned right because of it , they are good for stock applications only , get a properly calibrated mass air meter or custom burned chip with a boost sensitive fuel regulator (accufab,aeromotive) for your set up and you will be much happier. And last , no , you should not have a noticeable amount of play in the supercharger pulley.

No Belt Slack Is a Major problem In gaining consistent Times All Belt should exceded Ford Spec Yes you will waste allot of Belts But you want ET and Whole Shot? I have an 11 Psi procharger. Also are you using Underdrive Pulleys? 30lbs Injectors are a Good Question but its a Relitave Question are you at sea level? Mountain? Desert? Pump Gas? Av Gas? Chat with your Favorite Wrench You Must have a Guru SVT tech maybe? |

I agree about ditching the FMU. You don't need it. Throw it away, far far away. If you're running underdrive pulleys, toss them as well. You can't run underdrives with a blower...the pulleys will spin the blower slower which (I'm pretty sure) isn't what you want ;) . You should be ok with the 30# injectors and a 255 lph fuel pump. Just set the timing at 10* and FP to 40-42 psi as a baseline and tune it from there.
A dynotune and custom chip would be a good idea in the future. |
Ok I may have Miss Stated What I ment with under Driven Pulleys
Quote:
In Hawaii Bellow Sea level The Air is so thick that Less Drag from the rest of my Components Under driven Pulleys are better at sea Level Its ratioed I dont really Understand All of the Underdrive and Overdriven Pulley techniques But the are serious and My SVT GOD :cool: Knows allot about setting up an engine. And It can Change From one hour to the next . Also The Crank Belt that Drives the Blower Is always the same size My sub conponants that are belt Fed May be under driven or Overdriven according to a Ratio. |
I am not using underdrives, I am not ditching the FMU, I am not switching to mass air. I put the belt on today and just blew air out the side of the car, that is overwhelming!
On the bypass valve their is a port to put a line on. Is it a vacume or a boost line that goes there? And where do I put the other end? What disc should be in the FMU with a 9psi charger and 30lb injectors? I want these questions ansewered, not what else I should do instead. Thanks. |
you put a vaccum line to that port on the bypass valve , the vaccum will hold the bypass valve open and when the vaccum turns to boost , the boost pressure will in turn close the bypass valve so the air can no longer recirculate . If you want to know that info about the fmu , you are going to have to call the manufacturer , however they will probably reccomend not to use the fmu as well .
|
I forgot to mention , you can just splice a t-fitting int o one of the decent size vaccum line that go to the intake and run a line from that to the bypass valve . And , what are you talking about the air blowing outside the car ?
|
Thank you mike, we just was interested to see how much air flow come out of the blower, It is bolted in the car but not tied in yet. So I put the belt on the blower and put the 90* pipe facing to the side and cranked the car, simply pumping air strait to atmospere.

FMU Disc
MM&FF had an article a few months back where they were tuning a blower combo and they too had to contact the FMU manufacturer for the correct disc. I wish I could be more precise for you, I feel your pain.
I understand your refusal to consider the chip option, however I must agree with some of the guys above that it is a good one. Good luck... |
Thanks Hozer, It is a 6-1 disc that I need. Yes to all of you, There are better ways to do this. I am just starting out, the finance dept is closed for a while. I will be going with a TwECCer RT, that will come later. If a FMU was part of the kit it will be fine for me to start with. Do I need a BTM? Will the RT do away with the BTM?
