shucky Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi everyone, first ... thanks to all those who have purchased resin turbo's and misc. parts from me. Very much appreciated. Just a notice to all - I'm not accepting any turbo orders or misc. part orders for the next two weeks. I will begin accepting new orders on Monday 10/11/10. If you have a pending order, it will ship in the next couple days. Thanks as always. New product coming soon will be resin centrifugal superchargers in multiple sizes.

TurboKitty Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) just wanted to say that I ordered some resin turbos and they are my first resin items that I've ever bought, I love them! He also sent me some extra goodies and the details look great, very, very minimal clean up involved! I will definitely be buying more sometime! Thanks again Mike!

Kaleb Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 how are the superchargers coming along? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 how are the superchargers coming along? Well, the reason for the 2 week off period was because I was travelling with the wife. Then when I returned I got sick. Sooooo .... I'm better now and back in the groove. The s/c's are next on the list. Be patient for the next few weeks and when they are ready I'll post an update. Thanks for following along! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whale392 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Good to know you're up and running strong again Mike. I know this is a silly question, but what prototype are you basing the scale centrifugals from? Paxton, Vortec, Procharger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Good question Brad! I've done some research and like the looks of the Prochargers. The masters will mostly be built from various styrene stock. I hope to get a master done within next week and I will post pics and more details then.

whale392 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 That's cool Mike. I have no doubt that whatever 'style' blower you cast, it will be a sharp piece and very welcome by quite a few of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 completely understand, just got back Saturday from a weeks vacation ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whale392 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I will say this: No matter the prototype, I will definately look into these. I just got some of Mikes turbos, and knowing the centrifugals will be just as nice has me saving up to order a few of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Cullinan Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I'm with you . I am getting ready to use a turbo,once I stop drooling over it. BTW does anyone have any reference pictures. Specifically where they mount to the headers? If that is where they mount. I will say this: No matter the prototype, I will definately look into these. I just got some of Mikes turbos, and knowing the centrifugals will be just as nice has me saving up to order a few of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Greg, I have plenty of reference pics. What kind of engine are you putting the turbo on? You can also try an image search on yahoo or google. Also, thanks again to everyone who gave kind words and placed orders. Much appreciated!

Greg Cullinan Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I have a 427 I did a few Google searches and have a lot of top views. Just don't know about the tubing at the bottom of a motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Greg, are you doing a single or twin turbo 427? I can probably provide a couple pics tonight when I get home that may help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Cullinan Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Thanks Mike, I didn't reply cause I was out of town. I was planning a single. But either will work. I really appreciate anything you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shucky Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) Greg no prob! Here are a few that may help. Big block twin turbo. Show mounted on standard 4 bolt flange. The little pipe poking out on each header is where the external wastegates will be mounted. Here is another twin turbo on the dyno. Here you can see some configurations for the intercooler piping, etc. Your intercooler piping (if you use an intercooler) will be routed however necessary based upon your application/vehicle/fitment. You can use this though as reference to WHERE the connections are properly made. Non intercooled twin turbo small block illustration. This engine has "log" type exhaust mani's not tubular headers. You can see the piping on the cold side of the turbos gets routed straight into the intake on the engine since no intercooler is present. Also, towards the bottom on each side you can see the external wastegates poking out. These are mounted on smaller diameter tubing with small flange off each exhaust mani/header. Hope these help! Take care, Mike Edited October 31, 2010 by shucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Cullinan Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Mike these are perfect,thank you much, On google all I found were pictures in engine compartments and its a tight squeeze so it is hard to make heads or tails of what is what.

shucky Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 All, just FYI for those who were watching this thread for updates on the superchargers ... I just posted pics in the "work in progress" section of my finished master. I will be working on getting this in rubber shortly and there will be an official announcement made here in the resin section when they are available. Thanks guys for your patience! Really appreciate it and your interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Mike, Quality takes time, and with your stuff being as good as it is, just TAKE your time! I KNOW they'll be worth it in the end!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
