    transmission question

    How about calling the company (R&D motorsports/Orient Express/APE/MT Performance/Lees Performance/etc) you are going to have undercut your gears and ask them. I'm pretty sure second gear mates with sixth so those will be the two you will need to purchase but don't quote me on that.. Since you...

    Rotrex Supercharger & Engine Setup

    :please:Can anyone suggest a comprehensive software or spreadsheet that will help assist in setting up a high performance supercharged Hayabusa engine? I know some supercharger installers have software, but I have yet to find out who the software designer is and cost. Below is the link to best...

    Rotrex Supercharger & Engine Setup

    I have a 2006 ECU and wiring on 2001 motor (long story) so should I just reflash and not get a AEM F/IC?? From what I can understand 1. Reflash if you have a late gen1 and NOT running secondaries? 2. Use AEM F/IC if early gen1 and/or running secondaries?

    Can I use the AEM F/IC to run primary injectors (somewhere around 1000cc with E85)and not use secondaries?? Trying to keep project within budget???

    If I need to run an estimated 750cc or greater injectors with standard pump gas, that will need to be increased an estimated 30% for E85, will 975cc (750 * 1.3) or greater be too large to atomize fuel correctly? Although I was hoping not to, will I have to run secondaries instead? I just wanted...

    Just got off the phone with Hirsch Automotive, who makes an Alcohol proof sealer for gas tanks. They stated they have an ethanol storage tank with their sealer lined in it that has not broken down after 4 years! Sound like it would be perfect for my application..:beerchug: Still looking into E85...

    Good points being made.. I'm looking into the feasibility of converting to E85 now. Since I have to buy all new injectors, FMU, fuel lines etc for the new supercharger setup that should not be too bad. I'm worried about using my aluminum fuel tank.. Lots of bad stories throughout internet...

    I burn a lot of gas in the desert. Running race gas would throw the cars operating expense out of my budget. The convenience of getting high octane gas it is a pain as well.... Cost benefit just isn't good. The expense of the engine modifications will be a hard hit but seems well worth it due to...

    Rotrex Supercharger & Engine Setup

    I'm actually kind of open to the hp that I go for. I'm thinking 290hp might be low for the 38-81 Rotrex that I alredy have (the only thing I have at this point). My biggest worry is the motor still being reliable for the desert and being able to run 91 oct fuel. From what I understand, the...

    Thanks for the great information! So yeah, I'm interested in your devise. It makes sense.. Please do keep me posted as to how your build goes. Can you give a suggestion as to what size injectors and drive pulley?

    Thanks for the complement and good question! Not sure, so I'll do further research to get more opinions as to whether or not the map sensor should be disabled and post the results..

    I'm been having more than a few late nights with my eyes glued to this forum, so I'm aware that there are a lot of you Hayabusa gurus out there :bowdown: . I fabricated a Hayabusa powered off-road car and nearly worked out most of the chassis bugs and am now ready to move on to supercharging...
