If you only want to run 5-6 psi of boost, wouldn't the ct s/c be sufficient? It seems to me at that psi the mp90 is overkill or am I wrong?

Paul, correct me if Im wrong, but 5-6psi on the M90 is like 8-9 on the M62.

and even then the M62 won't suffice, and be able to breath enough for a stroker motor, while the M90 can

Yea. IIRC Paul said the M62 on a 3.5 was struggling to hit 2psi. The M62 really cant flow enough for our motors.

Yes, it comes down to CFM of air flow, even Eatons own documentaion states that the M62 is only for 3.0L or smaller engines, so even under mid throttle the engine is struggeling to get air thru the blower, being a roots blower it does not have pull thru like a centrifical. Now the MP62 will work on stock engines, but is far from efficent and would cause greater parasitic loss across the powerband. the M90 is rated by eaton for a 3.0L to 5.7L engine and looking at the docs they were not even taing into account our "heavy breathing" Honda designs.

Now what I am waiting for is more OE designs using the new TVS blowers but it will be quite a while before they start showing up in the junk yards so we can get them as cores for a resonable price, right now the M90 equivelant is going for almost $3K just for the core blower vs the $200-$300 I can get the Gen3 M90s for......

Ya, keeping my eyes peeled for an Audi S5 1300cc TVS blower or heck maybe even the 1900cc CTS-V blower (yes, the ZR-1 has a larger 2.3L blower). I did check out the DDMworks Atom Ariel 2 1.3L TVS blower swap, no prices except the whole kit being 6.5K.

Actually the one we really want I have not seen in a OE yet which is the 1650, the 1300 would be too small and although the 1900 would work well it would not be as efficent as the 1650 for our vehicles.

Yeah, I haven't seen it used either, but depending on the 1300's price it mightbe worth it since it is still 300cc bigger and more efficient in general.
However it would be nice to be able to have at least 1.5L to be comparable to those 3.8L SCed pontiac motors.

Plus it says something that the 1.3L is being used on the 2.0L Ecotec motor for Cobalts, and Redline. then again it is being used without to many problems on the Audi's 3.0L motor in their S5 convertibles.

delete the space between the red and line


edit: the hood has already been cut out for the swap, so why not just make it taller only a little additional trimming would be necessary to make it fit

looks to be the very same kit though, especially since the VUE guy had sold it (and considering that the supercharger is a wrinkle black finish in both...)

Is it just me or does that not look fast at all?

He goes from 87mph to 105mph (hes saying 140 then 170kph) in 4 seconds (13 second mark to 17 seconds mark in the vid).

For a supercharged J35 Civic thats kind of sad.

I think he said it was only at 1/2 or 3/4 throttle and he still needed a tune.

That would explain why it didnt spin but I didnt hear him say that in the video.

It is posted in text under the video if you go to the youtube link. Here is the exact quote.

"Getting onto the highway at about 3/4 throttle. Not really pushing the car it runs a lil lean."

Did you buy everything, or just the M90? I was hoping the M90 would have lasted till I get my tax return, because i don't think the m62 will be up to my 3.6 build i have coming.

He bought just the adapter parts I made to fit the MP90 into the MP62 kit. I still have everything else for sale including the MP90 itself. Make me REASONABLE offers please. I need to get rid of it.

MP90 unit is gone. I still have the whole MP62 supercharger kit and a ton of other parts if anyone is interested. I have all the parts to make an Air-to water intercooler for the comptech kit if anyone wants to buy all the parts. They were all about $1000 new and I would be willing to take any offers. cores, hoses, pumps, elbows, radiators, etc.

Keep in mind that was kmh, so he was only doing a little over 100mph.
