Camden supercharger!?
« on: January 11, 2004, 03:04:23 AM »
I read an old 4 wheeler(april 2001), and at the page 56 you see the "sick 'n' twisted sidekick" that try to make the TTC.

In the desciption you can read "the kick is poweredby a 1.6l suzuki motor with a weber carb and camden supercharger."

Anyone here see an camden supercharger and if yess it work great or not?

Thanx

Sounds like the old Calmini kit. The Camden is a Roots type supercharger. There used to be a writeup on Izook.com I think.

I have had quotes of getting a once off supercharger kit for the 16v of around $7500 AUD or $5838 US... I thought i can fit a 2.7 V6 XL7 motor for that price....

Yeah, I've been around supercharged 8 valves. The kit is nice and the blower is almost as big as the engine. The vehicles do run quite a bit better relatively speaking [for a 1.3 or 1.6 liter engine. ]  

They (the kits) were sold exclusively through Calmini and have been discontinued. Every once in awhile I see a used one come up for sale and that would be the only chance to get one.
