Performance Advantage
Read about what makes our performance kit the best performing AMR kit on the market
You can order this kit without a drive system. This allows you to use your existing serpentine drive setup and run a single drive belt. This works well for low boost applications of 5-6psi
If targeting higher boost levels we recommend that you consider running a dedicated blower drive.
Our dedicated blower drive system features a dual belt drive system, which utilises a dedicated PK6 blower drive, to eliminate slip, and overcome the excessive blower load on generator and alternator bearings found with single belt serpentine setups.
The stock vee belt is retained to drive the generator / alternator
Our Stage 1 kits feature the same 2" round ports copied by our competitors. These work great on mild boost levels of 5-6 psi
Our Stage 2 and 3 kits feature square manifold ports that match the AMR superchargers port shape. The square ports help to reduce adiabatic heating and parasitic load by providing 40% more flow area than the standard 2" round ports. This helps you to make the most of the available boost from your AMR500 and lowers the detonation risk by reducing intake temps.
Our Stage 2 and 3 options are the way to go if you want to target higher boost levels
Our high flow tee manifold has a 50% larger flow area than the stock manifold and will connect to both dual and single port end castings as well as CB EFI manifolds. Our elongated tee junction helps to keep fuel suspended in the intake charge and not get separated out of suspension, which is a common issue with merged 'Y' bends.
Merged Y bends are unnecessary on forced induction setups, where the charged is pushed through the system. They only offer a performance advantage on normally aspirated engines where the charged is sucked through the system by the pistons.
Y bends also allow reversion waves to travel back up the manifold in opposition to the direction of flow. In contrast, a Tee manifold acts as an acoustic baffle; the sharp junction scatters and dampens the reversion pulse, preventing it from interrupting the incoming flow from the supercharger.
Our new dual serpentine drive features a dedicated PK6 drive belt for the blower and a second PK drive belt for the generator / alternator replacing the stock vee belt with a dedicated PK4 Drive
Our hideaway manifold setup features an angled inlet manifold and revised supercharger stand, that moves the carburettor tight against the fan shroud and alternator to allow the decklid to close without the need for decklid standoffs when this kit is fitted to a bug.
The one caveat with using this setup is that if you use an alternator, you must use an 'easy access' alternator or modify your existing alternator to remove or relocate the main terminal.
