Hi everyone, this blower has been in my shed for three years now and I'm not going to ever get around to fitting it. So it is for sale. I'm selling the pulleys separately. Blower, air/water intercoolers, bypass valve, water pump for the intercoolers - all genuine Jaguar stuff in excellent...

Hi Guys, I pretty much run a quality 10W mineral oil in my 1UZ-FE V8 nowadays with excessive changes at 5000km or 3000 miles. For special events I'll run a 0W full synthetic motor oil (events like a dyno day or a weekend of 220 kph circuit sprinting) Without a doubt quality oil will "last"...

Hi everyone, we had a dyno day in Adelaide last weekend for Toyota Soarers. Plenty of V8's attended. Stock V8's started at 127 rwkW (170 rwhp) and ended around 139 rwkW (186 rwhp) with just a rear muffler change. V8 with a BFI and a split system (no balance pipe) and a pair of straight...

I measured it and it fits! Lots of usual problems plus extras like front and rear water bridge mods. Blower cost 350 pounds with intercoolers. Got the intercooler water pump (very important) for 90 pounds. Yes it's a Jaguar supercharger from a 4.0 L V8 - 9:1 compression - 276 kW stock...
