Has anybody tried or thought to try a supercharger from a 97 2.3 Mazda Meillina type S. Currious to know.

there are 10001 post on the 2.3 KJ motor please use search as there is a thread about 5 threads down from this one

the s/c from the millenia S just sucks monkey a$$ balz. ask the mazda tech. they'll tell you. Too much problem with them and cost to much to fix.

its a lysholm which = best s/c type.

BUT yes it has lots of reliability problems w/seals leaking & crap.

on top of that its HUGE!!!!!!! I've removed many from KJ's. The cyilnder heads on the KJ are spaced apart drastically compared to the KL..to make room for the SC.

the SC is also insanely long. The T/B is way over near the battery would be on our car & the pulley lines up with the drivebelts.

it would be pretty much impossible to install it in an mx engine bay onto a KL.

The KJ fitting a MX? hell no! Its larger in every dimension. Dual intercoolers, the wider head spacing & long a-- supercharger. Add to that the crazy wiring differences (KJ's are automatic only and OBDII). its not that great of a motor anyways. You'd be better off turboing a klde.

Thanks I was wondering never saw a supercharged melinia in person I wanted to supercharge a klze insted of a turbo seeing and knowin all the work that has to go into a turbo and also the constant tuning involved and pluse with a supercharger most of the time you can get a boost controller that runs inside the car so you can retard it so much that basicly it's off when you don't need it. Basicly I'm tring to have power when I wanna play and gas mileage when doing basic driving. I'm open to new Ideas.
