dude, that is sick, man i really wish you would continue it, much props.

had a question, would there be a blower that would be small enough to fit under the xA hood? obviously something that would be affordable, i like making my own stuff, and working on my own car, but let me know, cuse its something i would be really interested in doing.

soros151, most of what is in this thread is recent. Read it and yee shall be enlightened.

Latinotke639.. I'm sure there is. I actually have an xA as well and was looking at it. I think it would have to be a more extreme setup to get it to work, and the best place to mount it would be BELOW the current intake and work it in to the belt loop somehow. Not sure how you would mount it either. Your best bet is probably the blitz kit. There just isn't much room in there.

Boogie... Can you do me a favor and just throw a tape measure on the blower for me? Length, width and depth of the blower housing? As well as the length of the drive snout?

I'd love to know the actual physiacl size of that blower.

I actually read some of this thread like 2 or 3 months ago, I thought I had read this last part some time ago. I also asked because of the performance aspect.

Wow, I must say you certainly have more courage than I would with a complete custom supercharger. it did get em thinking quite a bit though. I have a Greddy setup that runs a M45, really got me thinking if there would be any way the intake bypass valve assembly and header would line up with a M62. Width and height appear to be the same, the 62 just appears to be longer overall.

Where did you get your pulley? I may try to just go bigger for more out of the 45, it makes 8 pounds max currently.
