Another super charger thread
First let me start by saying i am horrible at searching forums but have read alot of threads on this but want some more info. Ok i want to use a m90 and mount it where my a/c is. ive seen it done on youtube and a couple other places but just want to know more info on this. If there is a thread for this point me to it. Most i have read are using the intake side with a hole in the hood or dont ever go through with the super charger. I basically just want something different than another ls swap.

Education is expensive. $2695 buys you a complete M90 side mount kit that fits under the stock hood and retains the A/C. Out of the box, plug and play. Fuel and timing tuning included. 6 pounds boost, 8-8.5pounds with a pulley change.

Momentum Motorsports made a mounting plate for the Ford M90 off the SC T-bird to mount the SC in place of the A/C. Their 'tuning' was 6 larger injectors.
They are no more. Out of business, probably due to blowing engines up.

To the op. Is this your first non factory forced induction project? Of so... I Will throw my .02 in. It is not ment to be uppity or offensive just what I recommend. Don't mod your daily for your first project or second maybe third. Pick up a wideband. I like aem. Throw that in there. Get a tuner piggyback device. I like aem fic model 30-1913. Learn to solder good. Throw that in there. Buy some bigger injectors some 36lbs/hr will work. You can find 8 for around 100 bucks on eBay. One or too might be duds. That's the fun of having 6 cyclinders. Throw those in there. Now rescale the injectors so the jeep runs like stock with bigger injectors with fuel trims close to zero. What I am getting at is tuning is the most important of engine modification n/a or F/I. Once you have made yourself very familiar with what ever tuner you wish to use you are much further in the process than the guy next to you with a built engine with a turbo on it. As far as mounting the supercharger invest in a welder I like my mig from Eastwood. With a welder all things are possible... That might be Jesus, can't remember. If you find you want to cut your hood aussiespeedshop makes a m90 adapter plate. It will require machining and a plate to adapt the adapter plate to the jeep intake. Would be nice if a company out there would just offer a manifold and pulley kit. Buuuuut no. So ya there's that.

You could swap in a mercedes om617 http://www.mercedesdiesel4x4.com/ has motor mounts and the trans adapter and everything else needed for the swap.

Another thing to add was at work so didnt have the time to really resond. I have a welder its hobart mig pretty used to it so fabbing stuff really isnt to much of a issue. I looked int to the older threads of the m62 and mounting it on the intake side which i guess cutting a hole wouldnt be that big of a deal. I have just seen multiple jeeps in person with the m90 where the a/c compressor is. I just like forced induction and wanna do something kinda off the beaten path. I was thinking bigger injectors and a tune. But after reading that the company that was selling a kit similar is outta business makes me weary. All ready went through one motor this year not looking to swap another anytime soon hahaha.

There were other factors involved. Putting larger injectors onto a boosted application and letting the stock ecu correct injector pulse duration down to keep a 14.7 afr will be no different than keeping the stock injectors in the first place. Also no mention of timing retard. On multi port fuel injection larger injectors with the correct tune is the way I would do it.

For the money you spend on a blower you could swap a ls and have a lot more power.You could do a 80 shot of nitro a lot cheaper and get the same power and a lot less work.Have you ever owned a supercharger?The whine can get anoyying and changing the gear oil in them smells worse then used axle oil.
