Re: [DML] Re: DMC engine upgrades



There is a shop here in Colorado Springs caller Rimmer Performance that does
supercharger setups. They subcontract work to several auto manufacturers, I
was given a tour of their facility and it looks competent. I had visited
the shop for a friend who asked about it since he read of an installation
they do for Subaru 2.5RS. Alot of the local rice boys take their cars to
have them warmed up.
So we started talking about DeLorean, they knew all about the PRV motor and
then started talking between themselves about the type of fuel injection and
what they'd have to do to make the supercharger work. I'm not stupid when
it comes to cars but it was over my head.
Anyway, they estimate a 40% increase in power over stock. So if you took a
stock 130 hp motor you would end up with on the order of what DMC Houston
gets with their stage one for the same price. The DMC build is probably a
more reliable way to go, but what if you had $10K to spend and added the
supercharger after having the stage one build up. Based on what I heard
from them, I'm thinking that would end up maybe 250 hp. That's beyond on my
budget at this time, but I thought I'd throw this out in case somebody else
is interested.
