Supercharger!
 

Just received proof that an 86 was Supercharged here in ZA!

I'm waiting for permission from the gentleman to post the pics......

Also heard from a little birdy that there is an unsold Orange 86! I'm seriously surprised!

..

interessting...yeah..would love to see pics...

Pics please :w00t:
Can you say which make of supercharger?

This is what I have.

No idea what make/type? Doesn't look like any of the ones I've seen on the forum.

I left out the other pics, because I havent spoken to the gentleman yet...

That looks like something Rob Green Motorsport may have put together.

They are well known for Vortech kits. I'm not sure if they have brought in any of the kits for the 86, but this may well be a custom kit from them locally?

Just had a look at RGM's website, and it does look like one of theirs. Will let you all know as soon as I get any other info.

Can't say I like the look, but good to see local manufacturers coming up with mods for the 86.

I really like the look of the Vortech Supercharger.

Sent a mail through to SAC, to find out what they can do for extra performance on the 86, as they do a lot of work with Toyota and keeping with warranties.

Let us know what you get from them.

Some info, when I spoke to Rob at TTCC charity event last weekend... :thumbup:

Dont have access to twincam forum at work...please post what he said.

In a nutshell, he has confirmed they have a kit in the final production stages, using a Vortech supercharger.

Figures and pricing have not been confirmed yet, but Rob expects to see a 60% increase in power.

I am guessing that it will not be the exact bolt-on kit that Vortech supplies, but will be customised with RGM's signature parts like the water-to-air cooler and top notch fabrication. It will most probably be run off a UniQ unichip. This is just my speculation so don't bite my head off. LOL!

I think we can see good power from this kit in SA, especially since we don't have as strict emmision laws compared to other parts of the world.

Thanks :thumbsup: ... did he say when this kit will be ready or what price it will be ?

Sorry for the late response...

"So, at the charity day yesterday Rob Green showed up in his supercharged FJ cruiser.... http://www.tolken.co.za/twincamforum...on_biggrin.gif

I spoke to him about a supercharger kit for Toyota 86...
He mentioned the following:
- Kit is under final development
- The kit will be Vortex
- 6 has been ordered, 5 already sold
- 60% increase in power...!!

Please note that these kits are still under development and that final figures and prices will be released by RGM at a later stage.

GREAT NEWS...!! http://www.tolken.co.za/twincamforum.../notworthy.gif"
