TexasLegacy2.5GT Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 It's just not a good idea with the open deck design of the EJ25D. Now, defiantly the EZ30 motor that Cobb Tuning makes a SC'er for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulzcow Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Yeah. From all the reading I have done, you don't want to boost the EJ25D. A.) The gains it can handle "reliably" are pretty small relative to doing a motor swap. B.) I say "relatively" because I've not seen one example of a turbo'd or supercharged EJ25D that lasted. Even from the RS2.5 guys who have gone with more boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxymoron36 Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 gotcha. yeah i was just curious cuz my buddy had an extra supercharger. but if its gonna be more trouble than its worth then its obviously not worth it. thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated broknindarkagain Posted February 26, 2012 I Donated Share Posted February 26, 2012 there is more to installing a supercharger than just bolting it on. You need piping....engine management, tons of wiring, wideband, etc. -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
