Interesting discussion, maybe Dave and Charles can participate in it. This discussion can end sooner then expected or it can be a multipage discussion. Regardless we have not talked about superchargers for a bit.
I have at my disposal my ported MPX that I used to run on my M112/M90 hybrid. I dont have data, it was merely a bold move on my part to make the kit more effective at lowering temperatures and being more efficient. This same port timing at the inlet is used on the MP Lightning cases, although outlet is different. There is only so much area on the M90 case to compensate for the inlet larger opening. The idea is to not overlap the inlet timing with the exit. Which I made sure I maintaned. Regardless, I want to use this case with M90 rotors and I am curious to know if the MPX porting was really optimized for the size and displacement and if additional porting was simply going to actually decrease efficiency, this was mentioned a while back, but after a conversation with Dave on the matter he hinted that Charles was experimenting with the MPX further, I assume to increase the opening at the inlet and outlet. I never did hear any results from this or if the experiment was shelved.
To continue the discussion I wonder if additional porting or honing of the inlet will allow this particular MPX to perform better, that with conjunction of the newly developed 95MM TB. I dont have the means to experiment but Id like to hear educated opinions on the matter.
I also have an old school MPIII at my disposal also that has seen better days, I think the tolerances are no longer tight on them due to a rotor failure but I think its still usable. I am planning on turning it 20%.
So will I be wasting my time with the ported MPX? Should I just use a beat up MPIII?
And is it maybe a time for a development of a new inlet for the MPX so that is can use the 95MM to its advantage?
