adam_christie 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hello all;Just been browsing another forum and someone is selling a Corrado G60 with a new Eaton supercharger and claims this is an upgrade to the G40 and G60 supercharger. The author of the thread is pretty sound and knows thier stuff so I'm inclined to believe them. My question though is:Has anyone tried an Eaton charger on thier VR6? They seem to be pretty common and relatively cheap!Cheers!Adam Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Rob 0 Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 a few have been done in the US using eton chargers from AMG's the problem is with the mouting as there is no kit for the vr6 you would have to make cutom fitting for the belt pullys and charger modify manifold and TB plus are brake cylinder is in the way to be fitted like that pic Link to post Share on other sites
jaysVR6 2 Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 For the price and the hassle of doing all that, you'd probanly save money if you Turbo'd it. It wont fit without more grief than it's worth. Link to post Share on other sites

FishWick 21 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Ah, good old "Heatons"..... They take too much energy to drive, hence their nickname in the trade.The one on the SL55 saps 100hp!It'd make an interesting project, but the gains won't be night/day different like a turbo.
