mightyvr6 0 Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Should fit fine if you have the correct brackets and idler pulley. Check out this page for more info and pics: www.the-corrado.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27844&start=0Some more very good pics here: www.the-corrado.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26108&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=supercharged+vr6&start=285 Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 should sound good too Link to post Share on other sites
fredfelcher 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Nice deal on one here: , http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8001845100&rd=1&rd=1but doesn't seem to include an ECU or anything to do with lubrication (sump, pipes, etc) so looks like a fair bit of additional work needed. After all that's added on, don't know if it works out very much cheaper than a C2! Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 look at that charger very closely lads, its upside down . the blower outlet should be at the top, i dunno wtf is going on with those ebay pics, but that DEFINATELY isnt off a golf unless he's fiddled the pics by mistake. lol looks used too.its not a bad price tbh. but jay already has the supecharger, and he wants the ecu, mounting, pipes etc...so....no point really buying another charger.just to add, SOMEONE had better buy that, its a bargain!

mightyvr6 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Yes that won't fit a vr6 as it is clockwise rotating. Link to post Share on other sites
Ultimatetune 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 nope, wont fit (the ebay one that is) Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 see i knew there was a technical reason, cheers mightyvr6 . i'd hate for someone to buy that intending on fitting it to a vr6, only to find it wont fit.... Link to post Share on other sites
Valver 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 That's a bit naught tho as he states that he bought it to fit to his VR6 - he says he hasn't had a chance to fit it, but I htink thats prob because he realised afterwards it won't fit.....hmmmm :?

mightyvr6 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Have you read it too: "As you can see from the photos It came from America and cost one thousand pounds in postage plus an extra one thousand for the price of the supercharger" Link to post Share on other sites
dubloke 4 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 sounds like a load of boswellox to me! Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 agree with dubloke, 1000 quid for p&p, vr6 fitment, looks used...vortech chargers dont come with that blue sleeve he's got on the intake, they come with blue protect plastic (like he has on the output), plus thats going for almost 700 quid (more now probably) do conversion on 1000 dollars...its cheaper to buy one and get it sent over LOLOL.

matth76 1 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Plus the ad also states it can fit a Honda. That can't be right - unless I'm mistaken Honda vehicles require chargers that rotate the opposite way to 99% of cars - definitely the opposite way to a VW. I may be wrong. The advert looked like a bargain although seems risky. What is a C2 charger and how much do they go for brand new? Can they be sourced second hand anywhere? Link to post Share on other sites
mightyvr6 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 About 2k for a C2 charger. Can be bought off vwvortex but not worth it due to import duty and shipping. Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 2k NEW from ultimatetune, or less secondhand from the USA, if your looking for second hand look into the zr2 z-engineering kits. Link to post Share on other sites
