I just measured but I only have 6 inch calipers. but I measured to the from outside of the belt to the inside of that metal ring on the outside. and then the width of that outside ring, if that makes sense. So from outside to outside with the belt is around 6.6 in. And the ac comp. is 5.195in including the belt.
#109
I forgot to measure the inside pulley that drives all the accessories.![]()
#110
The inside pulley on the ac comp, is 4.575in.
#111
Can someone with this manifold please give these measurements, I just want to know how wide the plenum is and the distance between the plenum and flange

I'll get those for you tomorrow. I don't have any way to measure it at my apartment right now but will when I'm at the garage tomorrow. If I see my neighbor tonight I'll borrow his tools, but otherwise I'll just get em later.
You do realize this intake tapers down though. I don't really want to supply that radius or dimensions to that degree. Don't want to tick anyone off. I don't see any harm in giving you the max depth of those two dimensions though. Did you also need that third dimension you marked on the TB side or is that just a mistake in the drawing? Not really sure how to reference that dimension on the TB side you marked actually. If you want to clarify that would be great.
Why don't you guys pay someone to draft something up for you in inventor or pro e?Does anyone have a template available for the 2.5 MKV bay, intake side to radiator support? Watermark it and send it to tchilds3404@yahoo.com, promise not to give to anyone else.

No its not a mistake. I know it tapers so thats why I included the throttle body side as a measurement. Its the widest part. Also just a rough measurement from the plenum to the flange. I think Im going to need shorter runners
#114
I vote ultra budget build, cut the stock intake, bond silicone couplers to the runners, build slip on runners w/clamps, screw the IC, see if you can crack the nylon runners/flange.
SUPER GHETTO but it would work until the intake runners melted.

Meh sure it would. You have a support bracket to use unless you remove it beneath the intake manifold. Oddly enough I can't remember how it is configured but I do remember it was there!
A nylon flange w/silicone couplers that has runners slip on over it would be pretty solid I think. It also has the thermal advantages over metal to metal to metal to metal.... to metal... hehe I really don't like super chargers for how much heat they produce though so no idea if this would work. It would be cool having a modular design too, w/dif runner lengths which you could incorporate.
Welding is easier though and that $300 ain't a bad price at all. The oval runners going to be a pita though.![]()

The Hyundai Genesis is the best performance bargain right now. The GTI is a more complete car for the price and a nicer place to be, but it cant match the Genesis's performance. A Lancer Ralliart is 4 grand more expensive so that's out. A MS3 is more powerful but then again it is FWD....and underneath the big turbo it's just a Mazda3 underneath.
However all that being said, the base Hyundai Genesis 2.0T R-spec is the better tuner car rather than the V6. The base which is now called the R-spec is lighter and stripped out which is what you want because honestly who gives a frack how many speakers your car has, or if the seats are heated, or if they are leather? None of that has anything to do with performance. And the 2.0T is not the crummy turbo from the Sonata Turbo/Kia Optima Turbo. It's the 2.0T MiVEC engine from the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart which is internally the same as the Lancer Evo's. So right out of the box you already have a HUGE tuning potential. But it's a coupe so it's sexier than the Evo. And it's RWD not 4WD which is what you really want. Go for it man. I can't join you because I've modified my Rabbit beyond the point of no return. I couldnt sell it even if I wanted to.
My choice if my situation were different; I had no car and had to buy one? Get a used 2010 Nissan 370Z with sport package for around 27grand![]()

Heres a little different design. I am really going to need to take the intake manifold off and see Where the sc can be placed, in regards to the pulley hitting other things.

Honestly, for the oval runners. I wouldn't be satisfied unless I modeled and benched a ton of different collectors/stack designs. The cylinder head has some funky stuff going on too. Either way its going to stuff air in the cylinders but you could easily gain or lose a good 40 horsepower because of these stupid ovals. They're a really superior design but a pita to work around unless you want to pay a machine shop like $2,000.
The other SRI's have cut corners in this respect though so I don't see any reason yours has to be over engineered either.
#122
What are you guys thoughts on runner lenghts and plenum volume?
#123
I bought my plenum, runners, and fuel rail, plus bits from here. Always have for the things I need oval tubing from http://rossmachineracing.com/
#124
I think this is a little too big to work. Everything hangs down to low, for the alternator where its at. Which is why Im making a manifold similar to your shape, but the ends are going to be rolled so the air flows smooth. Then Im just gonna bolt the charger to the manifold like the Jackson Racing Honda kit, and inquire the spacer awic Josh was talking about if I have cooling issues, or Ill just make a 1" spacer and drill the sides and slip copper nozzles in and run DEI's Cryo2 kit on a electronic management to spray as needed when temps get up a bit
#125
Yea, I love this car. I will only get the v6 tho, and supercharge it. I hate the 370z, the Genesis I showed is sexy as hell, but Id get in blue, with CCW Classics 12" rear 10" front, and slam it on Ksports. I have heard the 2.0t is the MIVEC 2.0t which is why I said that its a better motor than VW's 2.0t. My brother has a MS3 and to put it simple its a piece of sh*t to drive, plus it looks like a minivan. The v6 Genesis makes almost an extra 100hp with a tune, headers, and free flowing exhaust(how Hyundai restricted the car), and an intake, or you can leave stock, s/c it and tune it for 430whp, intercool and rods for 500+

Im not sure yet. I want to be able to utilise my sri so I dont have to add all those fitting to another pipe. It doesnt have to be in the same place. I just would like to run the same parts.
I will probably just make an adaptor plate that angles the sri in the correst direction and allows the stock tb to bolt up.
#129
Just had another thought to help out with the belt wrap on the alt. Since the top mount is just a threw bolt, just make a stepped adaptor that would rock the alt forward about an inch. All that would need to be moved is a coolant line, and that could be fixed no problem either.
#130
Now I was thinking of
1)shortening the intake arm on the supercharger 3" and mount the throttle body there and have a closed intake mani plenum, with maybe a tial wg on top just incase.
The other option we came up with was:
2) mount the s/c with the outlet pointing down with a ic adapter pointing toward the driver side fender and route the plubing to a awic in the factory battery location then to the tb on the side of the intake mani. Then just use that arm as an open intake routed down to the driver side lower grille with a filter. Do an filter housing relocate, and put both oil cooler and awic heat exchangers behind the lower center grille.
#131
#132
Im not sure I understand what you are talking about with an open intake verus a closed. and in the second solution will you be pressurizing before the tb?
I thought about putting the awic in the battery location as well.
I just did the calulations off the dims I got and with a 4 inch sc pulley that would put us at around 11000 rpm.
#133
Oh lol closed intake manifold meaning the throttle body is on the s/c, open intake manifold as in throttle body is on the intake manifold. The second soulution is essentially the same as running a turbo outlet routed to throttle body with a awic inbetween
There is a Ferrari turbo kit that includes billet intake manifold, using barrel awics with the BOV's on the side of the intake mani. The idea was, not enough room to implement them before the manifold, so incorporate them into the mani, math is involved in our situation, which Im looking for a formula![]()
#136
i think these deisgns will be faulted when you try to install them. they look like they all take up way too much room.
if i were to make one and use a eaton.... i'd make the flange for the charger vertical will the head.

Thats kinda my point with the designs. The best thing to do is bolt the thing to the intake manifold and do watermeth, or some other form of spray cooling, which I dont really think is needed for in my case a show car.
Ive been telling the shop thats helping me with ideas, this is the simplest solution:

Unless we can figure out a way to utilize the few inches we have above the valve cover, which I have a flat surface. So maybe a vr6 type manifold with built in awic like the new HPA special edition intake manifold. Let me make that image.
