I am taking a leap here and designed a open source hardware guide for how to supercharge your Series II with a REAL electric supercharger. No Leaf Blowers, or R/C Turbofans here.
I am going to start with some MATH
In order to make 5PSI of Boost, per liter, at 6,000 RPM, 3.25HP is required on the spinning motor driving a root type supercharger assembly.
1HP = 725 Watts of Power
A rotary engine for this formula will be 2.3x the size of the reported displacement or 3.0 Liters.
The kit I am having designed is a total of 20HP on the motor or roughly 15KW.
20HP would equal 10-15PSI on a Rotary at 6,000RPM
So the cost of this part I am having sourced is 2,600 dollars and that isn't cheap. That does not include the batteries to drive the motor, the motor controller, and the custom logic boards I am going to have to make to boost it.
Because all this is expensive and costly, I am building it without a engine for now, and will get a wrecked and salvaged RX8 to test it out on a Dyno and track.
So here are the major parts required
Air Filter
Piping
ESC Device
Insulated Piping with MAF sensor housing
Auxiliary Fuel Device (5th port, 6th port, 7th port or Methanol Injection)
Boost Computer Calculator
Fueling Computer
Health Sensors
Batteries for driving ESC
Motor Drive Controller (PWM)
Charging Mechanism (Inverter switched over to DC for charging)
External MAP Sensor
AFR Wideband
Stock MAF Voltage Tap
Stock TB Voltage Tap
ECT Sensor
Oil Pressure Sensor
Oil Temp Sensor
IAT (MAF)
Tuning Software or External ECU
This is not going to be an easy thing to do, and it would prob just be cheaper to buy a Series 1 and turbocharge/Supercharge it, or just a FD, but it is a puzzle I want to test out.
So the cost is looking like about 3,000-4,000 dollars for the whole thing including the batteries, parts, & tuning costs.
I will be getting the part together for some documentation shortly with some pictures.
The Major benefit is absolutely no parasitic draw from the drivetrain while firing and no backpressure issues from a Turbocharger. The only draw will be a Aftermarket Alternator with an increase of output via FREQ controller.
Going to be some fun so stay tuned.
