It is a roots type supercharger made by Alpine. I have not dyno'd it yet I have been lazy in that department I guess, I keep buying new parts insted .No worries tho there is no need for tuning with my stage 1 (4psi) If I ever make it to the stage2 (7psi) point I will need to tune. With the stage 1 my stock injectors are max'd out. Would love to meet. They do make a vorterch s/c for the tib and many other cars look at Rippmods.com their stage 1 claimed 300whp! With my mods I should be somewhere between 220-230whp with the stage2 and alky injection I am going for a extremely safe 280 may have to bump up the boost to achieve that but I dont want to push it! I use this car as my dailey driver so reliability is a major factor! The monster weekend car will be my rx-7!

FYI- Nextgen Motorsports is completeing a single turbo kit should be ready for the market by mid summer and will be around 3500 +/-.

The Delta motor is amazing when it comes reacting to mods! Nextgen has motors that will handle 600whp + but I think that is over Kill for me not to mention to much money to invest into the Tib at this point!

Thanks

I wont be out there this Sat maybe next. I hope! I will pm you for info!

Wow that is going to be similar to my setup! who is street porting his motor? I hope someone local! I would like to have my motor in and the car up and running by end of summer but I keep adding things to my list that I want to get and its getting really expensive so may take longer than expected but it will be done right no short cuts for me.

So far the car is prep'd for motor install. I also have a friend here you'll prob meet when you meet me he has a 87 N/A lookin for a TII motor he is doing a swap also! lol they are popular recently!

Pm sent!

Deff when I come up there I'll give yah a ride. I love STI's thought about upgrading but dont know if I want a bigger payment I like having extra cash pluys they are $$$$$$$ to mod! I have a good friend with a STI he just installed his Utec, APS front mount, 3" APS turbo back exhaust. He has other stuff also like K&N Typhoon intake, boost controller, turbo timer. I could live in his car! Everytime we race (roll of course) its different some nights he cant leave me quite so fast he says I am nipping at his heals I think he is being nice lol but like after 120 he keeps pulling farther and farther away. He isnt tuned yet and I havent ran him with his stage2 map and the launch control is just nasty! My favorite thing about the STI is cyclones!!!!!!
