Hi

I was on ebay looking for cheap land rover and i happned to stumble on a SUPERCHARGE LAND ROVER. And i just want to know where do you get that supercharger kit?, if so name some area and online site and also is it bad for the engine?

Thx

 

The previous attempts at fitting an after-market supercharger to the Land Rover V-8 have mostly resulted in premature engine failure. The reason comes down to boost distribution not being even among the cylinders when "blowing" through the stock intake manifold. A couple cylinders would end up with an overall "lean" mixture that would cause a mechanical failure. So ---there really isn't any "kit" available that I've ever seen. Every one of these installs has been a "one-off", with the exception of a southern California custom shop that turned out a few dozen supercharged Range Rovers. From what we have seen up here in Northern California, as we have worked on a few of them--- they all lost their engines, and the owners went back to a stock configured powerplant.

So whoever ends up with that eBay Disco is playing in the "experimental" area.
