Lots of folks are driving supercharged cars on a daily basis.

Call Dennis at Reinhart, he can give you lots of good info.

Many Marauders are running both types of supercharges on stock engines for many many miles with no problems.

He is saying that it is always 90-120 degrees there. Is this any kind of factor for a supercharged daily driver? Just curious...

Maybe a bigger intercooler or less boost.

Gotcha. I didn't know if those temps would affect it at all.

For a daily driver, especially someone who is not mechanically skilled to do their own repairs and maintenance, I would suggest a Trilogy kit. Standard kit would probably be good, but maybe an upgraded heat exchanger would be helpful.

Don't we have some SC guys in Phoenix or Las Vegas? It's frequently 100 degrees there in the summer, maybe they have some advice?

Hey, It's 100 degrees here in Louisiana during the summer months. It's 90 degrees right now.

My car is a supercharged daily driver, more than 20K miles over a three year period with no cooling or supercharger problems. It's a centrifical blower, 10lbs boost.

This very day I was checking to see if the boost curve was still on and it was putting out 10lbs @ 6K.

Fun, fun, fun till my sweetie takes the keychain away. LOL

I would contact Reinhart about using a Vortech or Paxton Supercharger. As a centrifugal supercharger is more efficient and should result in lower intake air temps. Send Dennis a pm or call him he should be able to help.

I agree plenty of sand and heat in parts of the U.S. For a daily I would also recommend a Trilogy kit too.

Brian - Don't you thinl it would depend on the sensor locations, upon install too?...... Would seem to be a much more critical consideration at those daily temps. No?:beer:

I was thinking more on the lines of serviceability. He is in Saudi Arabia.

I also recall someone from the middle east asking about higher gears for better top speeds in the long straight stretches over there. The Eaton/Trilogy has more low end torque so it would be better in that regard too.

Not knocking the centrifugals, just trying to steer the OP in a direction that would be more likely to provide him with a setup he will be satisfied with long term.

41,000 miles with Dennis Reinhart Vortech water to air kit with no problems. Last summer, I drove it (hard) fully loaded with 3 adults, and enough stuff for 3 weeks vacation. Many days over 100F, AC on all the time along with a lot of elecrical load, up and down steep mountain roads at high altitude and never had any cooling issues.
However, also upgraded the transmission, brakes, suspension, exhaust, driveshaft, 4.10s, etc. when the supercharger was installed (on brand new car). I would recommend doing all these upgrades if you install the supercharger. Especially a stronger transmission. Do it all a once. Dennis has all the parts (see his link above) and knows these cars inside and out. Your biggest problem would be finding someone over there knowledgable enough to do all the mods and tune it for you after the install. You don't want to pay someone to learn what not to do on your nickel. If money is no object, ship the car to Dennis and let him do all the work. And if you do that, get him to install a Termiinator engine and more boost than the stock block likes.
