As pointed out in the other thread, if your compression is that bad then you have problems that need to be sorted out BEFORE you try an add forced induction!

Putting a blower on an worn engine is a recipe for disaster. ;)

That would depend entirely on what pulley size you run, and where you want the bulk of the extra torque to be delivered. ;)

my amr300 cost about $300 from Adelaide Jap they are just down the road from my place. every thing else i have had to find elsewhere, or get made (brackets ) .

cost so far
amr300 $300
Charade turbo carby $250
recon and rejet carby $300
recon and remap dizzy (quote)$350-$400
fuel pump $250
FPR $200
custom brackets slab of beer :D

thats about what you are looking at not including working the motor to handle the boost.
you will also need bigger fuel lines and the air piping

hope this helps

I asked about the price on their website and they said that was depending on stock levels and quality of the unit.
