Title: Lysholm charger
Post by: Alexiskayak_7 on October 12, 2008, 03:26:29 am
I know that lysholm  chargers are more better than eaton and g lader so it's the best aftermarket charger to use...
Is there any car that uses aprox. a 40mm lysholm supercharger? Or m45 from a mini is the only way?

hey alex, the lysholm charger that would be used with the g40 engine is the smallest one they make but it can flow as much as a g60, also with lysholm chargers they need to be secured very well as too much movement means they can sieze.

I think it is only one Mazda and the top of the range AMG that uses Lysholm as an OEM part. You need to buy a new one from Opcon

yeah, don't think any where sold in this country.  Mazda have made some pretty mental cars over the years but normally the crazy ones sold in japan only.

I have a lysholm to go on mine. I cant get a flexible hose large enough to go from the charger to the intercooler. Biggest I can find is 38mm and I need 57mm. Anyone know where I could get one?
Or do you think I'd have enough movement with 2 silicone bends?

Sorry to hijack..
