Hi all,

I think you will all be pleased to know that following our sucessful work to date with twin-screw supercharging a 6-port RX-8 and our very sucessful work with engine management, we at Performance Design Australia (the home of Hymee Enhanced) will be developing a version of the supercharger kit for the 4-port renesis engine.

This will be a real godsend for the auto owners out there, and the 5-speed manual ones in other parts of the world.

The instant boost provided by the style of supercharger we are using will really work well with an auto.

If you don't know where the big long thread on Hymee Gets Supercharged, you do now Otherwise I'm sure someone will post it here real soon!



Cheers,
Hymee,

 

Hows it going Hymee? I've been reading that thread on and off. 54 pages is a bit to read though :p

Glad you didn't forget about us 4 port owners! :D Power off the line is exactly what this car needs!

Any power figures and ETA on the auto version?

 

Power and torque figures when we have something publishable that we can stand beside.

ETA will be when it is good and baked. :D

Your right - I reckon it will be awesome.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Haha, awesome. I can't wait! A supercharger solution sure does sound better than a turbo...at least for this car.

Good luck and keep us updated!!!

 

THis is really good news Hymee! You can be sure to count me in when you put this on the market!
Do you plan on selling it as a bolt-on/DIY kit?

this is exciting!

 

Bolt on - definately. HP in a box

DIY - Depends on your skills, I guess.

The hardest part to date would be putting the extra pulley on the bottom.

Plan is to have detailed instructions, of the usual high quality. :D

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Now THAT'S GRRRRRREAT NEWS!
CHEERS!

 

EXCELLENT NEWS--keep us posted. What kind of power are you seeing on the 6-port?

 

Any idea around the cost of your supercharger.. And if you could proved hp and torque numbers when you get them that would be great. If the price is right and over 200 to the rear wheels i might just have to buy it. Any idea when the kit will come out?

 

Will this kit be 50 state legal?

 

It is not being built to a price. It is built to quality. When it is baked, we will know how much it costs.

Patience will be rewarded is the best I can offer at this stage.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

How much will that cost you?

It might be more than 50. We have 6 states and 2 territories here, and I am not planning on breaking any laws.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Must be:
"If you must ask how much it is, you can't afford it "
(which includes me!)

Anyway, Hymee is a Rotary Super-Hero :o !
I look forward to seeing this project....

 

I've been looking into the 50-state-legal stuff. Bear in mind we are on the other side of the globe. I guess the main thing I can point out at this juncture is that all the factory emmission controls / anti-pollution devices do infact remain in-tact with this project. I guess that is 80% of the battle.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

The 1 greddy turbo'd auto 8 that I know of required larger primary injectors because the stock ones were running something like 85-90% duty cycle IIRC. I have a feeling that your twin-screw blower is going to be flowing at least as much air as the "stock" boost on the tiny Greddy turbo, probably more. Therefore, I have a feeling that you're going to need larger primary injectors, also.

I applaud you for going ahead with the 4port supercharger, and I'm willing to bet that you'll be the first to get it to market. Pettit is the only other company that has said they will develop one, but I don't know if they've even started.

 

i might be wrong but cant you whack up the PSi a bit higher on a 4 porter as we dont have the weird air flow dohicky (technical terms are not a strong point) as i se from those nice folks in the East thay have got 290 at teh wheels from a turbo and better breathing!!!

if this is gonna happen from a screw......i will be begging you for one!!!

I see your from Down under.....good excuse for a visit to the relatives i think!

 

I agree! I love the way it looks and handles but I NEED more speed up front!

 

This is the best dam news I have read in a long time. And I would pour my hard worked money into your SC then GREDDY's Turb anyday!
Bring on the torque!
Whats the word on the price tag? and will there be a groupe buy set up for us?
Thanks,
Gilbert.

 

Damn..another thing to save for...I need to hit the lotto soon

 

yuuuuupp!!! powerball jackpot is up to $340 million. with that much money, i could buy everyone here a supercharger!

 

Can I get that in writing :D

 

me too...

 

same.

 

COULD ain't the same as WOULD.... hehehe

 

But we can still get that in writing right?
