mts Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Maybe more than you want to know? OIL INSIDE BAD Inside the lobes It is a 4-5 hour job for someone that has some mechanical background to swap out, but MAKE damn sure you label the lines that you pull off. The chasing the vacuum lines is a real PITA. The onset to S/C failure is rattling in the S/C bearings from trying to compress oil, lots of white smoke on starts that may or may not disappear, and if idling for long periods no power on take off, the same rattling as on start, and enormous white clouds that choke the person(s) behind you. Pull you front intercooler off, if you can our out oil... get ready by saving money.... The loss of power is so gradual that you may not motice, until a working S/C is put in and your milly is back to full strength! (w00t) Fear not the S engine, for it is not that bad once the plastic cover comes off and you learn the engine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super S 69 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 How much do superchargers go for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mts Posted July 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 From Mazda, I was quoted $2400 used, $3200 rebuilt and $6000 new. Canadian Superchargers said $2200 rebuilt. Those are all in Canadian dollars. I lucked into a good one on eBay for $300US. but usually go for up to $1000 or so on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
