Sorry Richard, I was totally off. 3/16"

http://www.grandprixforums.net/pheno...cer-12517.html

I thought i had read that they were IC thickness. 3/16" isn't gonna get an injector in.

What problems will a non sealed S/C cause for longevity. I don't think he will have a problem getting another one, and it might just give reason to upgrade to the Gen5 blower.

I don't think there is any possibility on sandwiching in the jet.

What about the supercharger body?

This is the best pic I can find of the actual assembly



Hole at the top is the PCV valve. I guess the simplest place would be below that

here is the Lower Intake manifold



Bottom of the SC

looks like post throttle is the only simple option. Unless you can tap into the side wall of the SC near the opening.

What kind of increase in percentage should be considered on flow if having to go through the SC too?

I really don't know the answer. You need to plot the S/C case temperature drop against the water flow under different load and ambient. It has to be done case by case basis. Do you have a few minutes to spare?

Data logging the drop in IAT (post SC)... Wmi flow rate against fuel flow. (rather boost, IAT(pre SC), RPM, etc).

L67 doesn't have a post SC temp sensor as far as I know. It's before the MAF in the intake tube.
