Bike carbs arrived, supercharger on its way!
 
Having attended this year Dragstalgia event at Santa pod and seeing a Mk1 escort running a silvertop zetec with an M45 supercharger bolted on the side, I was inspired!

I will update my blog when I have started fabricating the intake, mounts etc.....

I got some throttle bodies off a late ZX10R with TPS. However I have now realised the ECU I was going to use (from chester sportscars) does not require a TPS and is really for bike carbs.

TBH I have little knowledge on ECUs, so some advice would be appreciated!

I should also add, I have the crank position sensor and flywheel already from the 2.0 zetec. So I would not require a timing gear etc...

haha thanks guys!

Looking around there seem to be plenty of ECU's. Megasquirt etc.... As long as its got fuel injectors and boost I think it should be ok. Just gotta figure out how it all wires up!:eek: But I am sure it will make sense when I get that far!

I dont understand the need for the throttle bodies if its going to have a blower fitted. A standard manifold with a single throttle body would do the same job.
