Just thought I'd throw out an idea.

How about a remote supercharger powered by its own engine. Roots, screw, centrifugal, whatever. Wastegate actuator controls the throttle to maintain constant boost pressure as airflow consumption increases with engine RPM and turbo boost.

Anybody ever seen such a thing in use? I know in LeMons and F1 a few have tried something similar with a blower sucking air out from under the car for "perpetual downforce".

Why not skip ahead to two 617's?

MTM had a really cool Audi TT set up with two souped up 2.0T engines
it was called the bimoto. The thing was nuts.

Waiting for the right 4x4 small pickup and a place to do it, and money.

There was a drag car in the 60's (I think) that I saw in an old mag, had a small engine in the trunk running a big roots-type blower with piping up to the engine. Great concept, but I don't remember how well it did. I remember thinking that was the coolest thing I had seen in a long time though.

82 300SD aka The Flyin Pumpkin (Gone): 7.5mm super M-pump, T3 60 trim turbo, Coldish air intake, A/W intercooler, propane injection, SW Boost and EGT gauges, Monark 265 nozzles, ported/polished cylinder head.

84 Euro 300D 4 sp: White with black trunk and hood. Blue cloth interior. Manual everything. 300DT front swaybar. C320 17" wheels. Now with the Flyin Pumpkins engine!

I thought about this too. My idea was to get a ~10hp Hatz diesel and two roots superchargers all geared way up with a serpentine belt system.

That way the blower engine is fueled from the fuel tank, the intake/exhaust for the hatz could be shared with the cars, the Hatz could run low RPMs with enough torque to be geared up and remain quiet, and TWO superchargers! (because one supercharger just can't make enough boost Big Grin)

1983 300CD "Spike" Stock, as of now.
