Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Get ready for the ultimate budget supercharger test! I ordered a $100 Supercharger from TEMU and installed it on my $300 Miata drift car. Will this cheap Chinese import give me the horsepower boost I'm looking for? Tune in to find out if this plastic wonder can handle the challenge.

The rotors were just coasted in plastic/rubber to help them actually seal. It was meant to do basically this at that price, work for a moment.

A good cheap swap for a Miata could be a supercharged 3800 out of a Pontiac gtp or something, it’s a factory supercharged v6 pushing around 300 stock I believe. Feels great in a Miata, my buddy did the same swap and it’s like a mini hellcat

Where is the bypass valve? 2:35 You revved the engine to the redline and then let of the throttle, essentially blocking the intake with the throttle body, with no way for the pressure to escape if there is no bypass valve.

did you put oil in the gear
You did put oil in the supercharger first correct?
It looks to be spinning the wrong way, It’s spinning clockwise and pumping air out the bottom where the air intake is. I’m amazed it ran like that. If you were to make boost anyway you would have blown out all the engine gaskets with the crank case ventilation tube connected to the pressurized side of the intake anyway. It would be cool to see another go at this, I bet it would be successful 😁

We certainly expected it to last a little longer! Check out the Amazon supercharger videos it actually works!
you should take that housing and turn a regular turbo into a supercharger since its got the gears. just find a smaller gear that fits one of those and you have a supercharger.
You should have put a piece of window screen on the intake tube to catch the parts I happened to a friend of mine but I put a piece of window screen in and slid the coupler over it and caught all pieces that came off

Why would you be pushing oil out? The Aisin Superchargers have their own self contained oiling system?
The our never expected that supercharger to last it didn't sound lubricated at all
This super charger has an operating rpm range that nobody ever seems to pay attention to, you can't just bolt it up. Maby one day some channel will get it right 😂

@The.Rad.Factory the reason why I say bottom end rebuild is because whilst the gm 2.2 is a good engine it's number 4 cylinder likes to play peekaboo out the side of the block if you don't at least upgrade/make sure the rod bearings are up to snuff for it.
The supercharger would probably be good for one of those kei vehicles. Give it a bit more power and therefore more capability and strangely more fuel economy

Honestly the engine might be okay it's just that one of those plastic rotor parts probably got jammed in a valve so you might have a bent valve but other than that I don't expect crazy damage
Should do a Inline 6 chevy with brazil mods twin turbo they use stock cast heads and get over 2000hp pretty easily that's pretty good for a internal cam Inline 6 I prefer the 292s for torque but the engine they use in brazil is the 4.1 liter still alot of them around I just picked one up with a 3 speed stick for 300 bucks complete it fires right up

Judging by other vids you had it spinning backwards.. air goes in and around the outside and then out

I figured we had nothing to lose by starting over and this first video got 10k views in a week which never happened once in over 3 years on the other channel so hopefully it was the right choice.
