Marmes Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Hi all!I bought a rotrex supercharger c30-74 to fit the VW 1.4 engine, but the bracket that came was for a car without airconditioning, the supercharger would be under the alternator, but mine has aircon , so I need to make a new bracket to pt the supercharger on top of the alternator, do you know where I can find schematics with dimensions of engine parts and the engine it self so I can design a new bracket?or anyone of you that has a supercharged lupo or polo with rotrex can give me some advice?Thankyou!

noddy Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 (edited) i will have a word with a lad off here see if he has any plan's from his as he has a rotrex on his car Edited March 30, 2007 by noddy1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teflon Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 if you look at the mk4 golf engines(1.4 16v) in the breakers yard you might find a bracket you are looking for becuase some of those have the ancilleries in different positionsfailing that you could use an electric power steering pump from a 9n polo instead of the belt driven ones the n stick the ac compressor at the bottom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmes Posted March 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 i found a picture of a polo or lupo with rotrex in this forum, painted in blue i wonder if he uses a belt tensioner, even better what belt is he using. I know also I can use the original ecu, but the engine light is allways on style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> so I was wondering also if a dta ecu is ok, i tried to have some answers from emerald but they didn't do it, only dta answered me, and i am also considering an ems wolf3d, motec is ou of the question it's too expensive. it has nice support though. About the bracket, I started to design the bracket in a cad program, now I just need an alternator to make the rest of the design.after that I can put it here if any one wants it.

Marmes Posted June 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 The charger was 1800 euros something like £1100 ,I also bought the asz intercooler from a 1.9tdi 130bhp for 140euros (£100) brand new,it fits style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> some samco curves,they are so expensive style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> and a programmable ecu that can do DBW.
