Eaton Charger [Archive] - RONIN Wheelers

Okay, so I've had this OEM Eaton M62 supercharger sitting in a box in my garage for a while and I would like to finally get it in. Anybody know what they are doing enough to help out?

Any tips would be appreciated, as would volunteers :beermug:. I am not 100% sure what all I will even need to get the job done.

Any thoughts on how long it would take? A weekend? A week? I'll need to make plans for a car.

Thanks

Are you serious? Are you replacing an existing worn one? If you are trying to put one in a vehicle that originally didn't have one, good luck. You would at least be the first person who ever took it on.

elementalvoid

11-10-2006, 03:53 PM

Are you serious?

Yep. My X is not currently supercharged. This is why I am asking. I bought this just after I bought X and really had no idea what the hell I was going to do with it, but it was cheap so..

My thought process recently has been that if you can put an aftermarket charger on somecarA, then why can't you put one on someXterraB? I know that I would definately need the upper plenum and lower intake manifold from a supercharged X, possibly fuels rails (?), a different intake, and likely to send my chip out to JC Whitney or the like. Then there's also injectors, fuel pump, etc, etc..

I'm not sure that it is really even feasible. If it isn't I've got a friend that would LOVE to put a turbo on for me, but that would be a while before I did that..

You will see pics soon enough... there is a kit coming out for the vg30i, vg30e, and then eventually the vg33e. The VG30 can push upwards of 550hp, the vg33 about 320hp. The vg30 has stonger pistons. Mine will be pushing somewhere between 270-320hp.

The pictures of your rebuild are actually what prompted me to ask. I had no idea that there is supposed to be a kit coming out though.

Thanks for the links guys. Eric, I couldn't get yours to work... I've seen the Pathy before, but they don't give any details. Just some video.

That parts list is PERFECT! I guess it's back to ebay for me. The notes from the tech at the bottom are good too.

Now if I could only get Allen to do the labor for me : )

Ryan Gee

You will be seeing that kit for real early next year. Along with a bunch of other new Nissan Mods that are coming out.

320 on the VG33? damn.... I want that. I have pretty much maxed out my stock motor with a smaller pully, intake and exhaust. I could always use 100 more horse power. Ryan what is l&p doing different then stock?

elementalvoid if you don't end up doing the conversion, I would be willing to take the s/c off your hands. I currently have an SC fronty but I've been told its common for the s/c to wear out. Esspecially when running a smaller pully. I would'nt mind having a spare just in case.

I had forgotten about the company that started that VG33 kit. Last I had heard they moved from California to somewhere in Colorado. I think it was called Alpine Developments.

ChefTyler

11-11-2006, 10:26 PM

Clay, multitude of things done differently by L&P.
Different (read better) supercharger.
Pulley to match application.
Something or other with the ECU.
Possibly bigger injectors/fuel delivery system upgrade.
Mainly, it's in the engineering of the system. Nissan half-assed their supercharger setup it's what a 30hp gain? The OEM setup doesn't even come close to tapping the potential of the motor. It'll be fun to see where it ends up :D

Kev,
Thanks. I found them last night. Looks like a decent kit actually. If what the guy with the parts list said about price is true (he said ~ $3000) then the Alpine price is right on.

I am definately going to talk to them. I want to find out any differences between what they do and what I would do. Also curious to see if they have dyno tests..

tmorgan4

11-13-2006, 03:12 PM

All the numbers I've ever seen from the SCed VG33's seem VERY conservative. Seems like most of the places aren't running anything more than 7-8psi (from what I've seen). For those of you that haven't read this before, check it out. Shows the potential of the Nissan engines. Pretty cool :D

http://members.tripod.com/~grannys/2N6VG30.html

Also, looks like Alpine Developments is located in Aurora. Sweet!

tmorgan4

11-13-2006, 03:42 PM

Just sent Alpine Developments an email asking a few things. Mainly about what kind (if any) modifications are needed for the ECU and fuel system. Also to see if they happened to have any dyno numbers. They don't have much info up on their site.

JayRyan

11-14-2006, 08:24 AM

oh man, I suddenly want to to shout "MBC!!" But I won't :laughing:

Right, but their applications are on a completely stock 33 right? Those numbers will be conservative. When I'm done with my motor, I'll be able to easily out pull an SC'd 33 truck and that's without a supercharger- put the charger on top and it's all grins...I'm just waiting until a motor pops up that I can get...

From what Ryan and Lee have said, it's just frackin' easier to put a charger on a 30...

Can you disclose these plans for your 3.3? Are you planning on doing internal work as well as cams and the other available bolt ons? Kind of what I've been wanting to do...plus a S/C.

Ryan Gee

11-14-2006, 04:36 PM

They make stronger pistons for the 3.3l... they run about 1600 bucks!!! I think Tyler H has a good idea... just buy a 3.0l. They are all over the place, and they take everything you can throw at them!!!

JayRyan

It's coming together. The worst part is going to be finding a damn engine! Yes, I do hope to do internal work...but I'm still gathering my parts list :D

And I don't want to have a run of the mill, easy to come by 3.0! ...sorta rebel like that...I like to be different ;)

Building the 33 will be fun, interesting to see all the little differences between it and the 30 :D

Ryan Gee

11-15-2006, 01:55 AM

The nissanperformancemag.com build would be kinda fun to do. Take a 3.3l and put the v8 pistons in it. They seem to have come out with some good results. However with the 9.6 compression ratio throws a supercharger out the window.

Packman5280

11-15-2006, 09:03 AM

no it doesn't. just don't boost it too high, I bet even at 9.6 a VG30 (or VG34) could handle 6psi.

Ryan Gee

11-15-2006, 09:19 AM

Ok then, for another 1200 dollars you can throw on a Supercharger for 15 HP and be forever stuck to premium fuel.... naner!!!

You know what is funny, Lee and I had this conversion a little while back. All that work to watch a 200K mile vg30 blow past ya for a third the cost.

The vg30 in its factory form is just made to take it. The engine that has been getting worked on in my garage has had a less than good life. Thoughout this process it has become obvious that I really didnt need to do it. This thing has old black oil (from no oil changes) stuck all over inside it, and it still checks out good. I took the heads to Havana Machine for a valve job.... all the valve guides were still good, non needed to be replaced!

I really think a guy could throw a L&P kit on and enjoy! No other work needed, just smile with 300hp under the hood!

So far it sounds like a SC could be on your rig for somewhere in the 1200 dollars range! That is everything! Keyword is "SO FAR".

elementalvoid

11-15-2006, 09:30 AM

Ryan, can you please give a link? I looked at the site real quick, but couldn't find that article. They don't have a search function..

Thanks

JayRyan

11-15-2006, 10:08 AM

So far it sounds like a SC could be on your rig for somewhere in the 1200 dollars range! That is everything! Keyword is "SO FAR".

Right, but have to replace the whole engine. Of course, that's what I plan on doing anyway *rolls eyes* Now, don't get me wrong, I'd love to build a 30 but something inside me still wants to build a 33 then put the supercharger on. Part of the love is the fact that I won't have to burn premium but still have lots of usable HP.

However, the price tag is the tempting part. But I think I at least want to still attempt the 33 build. Boring out to make a "VG34" wouldn't be a bad idea, but I kinda like LOTS of FI so I probably won't go THAT far. You might still be able to blow by me, but I did what I wanted and that's they key :D

...but I'll probably end up rolling it at Moab or crashing into a rock face or something equally stupid and just buy a new truck:laughing:

Ryan Gee

11-15-2006, 10:28 AM

The SC kit is still in the build-up stage. So it is not on the website yet. He has it working on his truck... just wants it to be dialed in before it is available. However, It does sound sweet!!!

ChefTyler

11-15-2006, 10:39 AM

Here's Part 9- I'm sure the rest is there somewhere. Everytime I look up VG33 pistons or "" cams or "" headers or something, some part of the damn article pops up :laughing:

Packman5280

11-15-2006, 10:49 AM

I wonder why a SC on a 3.3 would only add 15hp? the VG33ER that only has an extra 15hp also has much lower CR, which would explain why the low numbers. The internals of the VG30 and VG33 are of the same construction (as I understand it, the rods and block are the same design) so why couldn't a 3.3 take the same abuse? Not trying to start a fight, just wondering why you couldn't milk more power from a 3.3, all else being equal?

elementalvoid

11-15-2006, 11:21 AM

Regarding the nissanperformancemag article, I had already read that a while back. Just didn't realize that's what you were talking about.

Ryan Gee

11-15-2006, 01:45 PM

The pistons are different. I honestly don't know anymore than that. My guess it that the ring lands cant take the force created by the extra pressure.

It is also kinda interesting that Nissan never used the 3.3l in a sports car.

Here is an article I found on what the ring lands do...

http://www.aircooled.net/gnrlsite/resource/articles/pcrops.htm

After reading that I had better go check the ring lands again... LOL! I guess the reason for rebuilding this engine was to learn about it! Next time I grab an engine there are a few things I need to look at/for!

Packman5280

11-15-2006, 02:11 PM

no 3.3 in a sports car actually may say something. never thought about that before.

JayRyan

11-15-2006, 03:06 PM

no 3.3 in a sports car actually may say something. never thought about that before.

I've been reading that the 3.3's been put in quite a few 350's or at least encouraged to be used for tbe larger bore size right off the bat than the 3.0. But who knows when it comes to the internet...that does say something. Who said it couldn't be done though?

Mmmmm....fascinating, I'm gonna go do some more reading...or hang out on some ricer forums :)

Packman5280

11-15-2006, 03:43 PM

was just talking to a drag racer guy I work with, and he mentioned that the larger bore of the 3.3 could contribute to poor (relatively) cooling compared to the 3.0, which may have something to do with why it isn't used more often. A boosted motor is going to run hotter than NA, so maybe.

Ryan Gee

11-15-2006, 03:47 PM

The rings on the 3.3l are thinner for fuel economy. New pistons fix the issue. Talking to Lee there may be a chance for a group order discount on some better pistons. More info later...

Anyone interested?

Packman5280

11-15-2006, 03:54 PM

perhaps. for the 3.0 or 3.3?

what am I talking about, I can't even afford shocks.

http://mywebpages.comcast.net/engloid/vg30tips/vg30tips.html

He is thinking for the 3.3l... this would be for some serious HP! Tires in the air on the launch kinda power!

This is more than I want for a wheeler.. however who knows what will show up!

Allen Cox

11-15-2006, 10:46 PM

Wow, just read this whole thread!

Would be willing to put any parts on anyone's rig, no problem.

If my engine blows (might be a 'break it to make it!' situation sometime) then I'll be throwing a 3.0 in the ol' PhoeniX with Lee's S/C. With all the goodies too. Be nice to smoke a set of 35's on a 9" and watch all them boys on XOC take a grumpy at their computer!

The above article has given some really interesting ideas ;) Ryan, depending on where I'm at financially and final price, I'd be VERY interested in a set of pistons for my VG33.

And if someone can find me some damn cams and an intake manifold....

Ryan Gee

11-16-2006, 06:04 PM

The pistons would be custom and in the 500 range...

elementalvoid

12-01-2006, 08:31 AM

This kit is WAY the hell simpler than the setup on the stock superchargers. You don't have to change the fuel rails. You don't need different intake manifolds, they build their upper plenum to match up to the n/a stock intake manifold. The computer is not changed, he uses a piggy back.

The only change to the fuel system is the addition of a 7th injector.

I'll get a whole parts list and post it up as soon as i can.

Hey Ryan do you have any info on when they are releasing the kits?

elementalvoid

01-19-2007, 08:43 AM

Updates.. Well, yes and no.

I have the supercharger installed and it is working well. But, it has not been fully tuned yet. The freakin' snow keeps messing things up. I had to take it back early so that I could get out of my driveway. For the first storm I didn't have the truck back. That sucked.:mad:

I've had it back for a couple of weeks now and, like I said, everything is good. The belt on the supercharger is a tad long so the pulley tensioner is at its max. It is tight enough though. I am getting about 5 PSI max at the moment.

As far as the tuning goes. The Unichip is doing nothing right now. The 7th injector is not spitting. The timing hasn't been retarded. Essentially all that has been done is to plop the charger on and get it going. The stock ECU programming is doing an excellent job. I am impressed. Also, a side affect is that before the install I had a slight clicking noise as the engine ran. That is now gone. YEAH!

I am working with John to determine the best time for both of us to get the truck back in. He is currently working on a couple of Cobalts so there are times when they are not running and he can't move them to get the truck in.

I'll let you all know what it's like after the tuning.

Pictures are coming. Jay, who did most of the install, said he took a bunch of pictures.

elementalvoid

01-19-2007, 08:48 AM

Oh yeah. I also ordered one of the A-pillar gauge pods from Automotive Customizers. It came in quick and I've got it installed. I already painted it, but it's too dark. I'll have to redo it. Looks damn near identical to the original. It even has the hole for the tweeter.

I bought a couple of 2-1/16" Splitfire gauges. One is boost and the other is oil pressure. They look pretty nice. I'll post pictures of these as well.

The only thing I don't like about the pod is the way it mounts. There is a screw hole in it and it comes with a screw. But... the hole doesn't line up with anything. I have to drill a new hole. Not a big deal you say? Heh. You try drilling a hole there. I broke two bits. Again, I'll get pictures.

JayRyan

01-19-2007, 09:29 AM

I drilled through mine the VW- start out with a small bit and just get bigger as needed- I had an a-pillar mount which means I kept the orignal a pillar but mounted the guage pod over it...I had to drill a MASSIVE whole through the pillar to get my boost and oil temp wiring through.

Where are you measuring pressure from? I'd like to get a couple of my gauges installed and one is oit temp- but I don't know anythign about the senders (electrical)

elementalvoid

01-19-2007, 12:05 PM

Jay,
The pod for the Xterra is different than what I gather you have for the VW. This actually replaces the original pillar cover. It does not sit on top of it.

For boost I put a T into the vacuum line going to the Unichip. The Unichip measures boost and adjusts accordingly so that was already in the cab.

For the oil pressure I intend to put a T into the line that I installed for my oil filter relocation kit.

Mine are mechanical senders. I have no experience with electrical senders. I'd be willing to help with an install if you like though. I'm sure we could figure it out.

JayRyan

01-19-2007, 12:07 PM

Werd. Yeah, I gathered that it was a bit different. Cool. You know, I'll ask Allen if there's an temp sender or at least a dummy that I can replace with a sender.

Also, on a completely unrelated topic. My truck started making this HORRID squeaking noise today. Couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from. Took about 20 minutes of searching before I ended up finding out what it was.

Last summer I came down pretty hard on the right side of my steel front bumper. I still had the wings on it and when I landed the wing shoved up into the quarter panel. That cracked part of the body cage that surrounds the engine bay. Apparently, after enough twisting and stress it cracked all the way through and started to rub bare metal on bare metal. (It rubbed all the paint off) That's what the noise was. I have a couple of pics here (llery.elementalvoid.com/gallery2/v/Xterra/brokenstuff/). I didn't feel like taking the battery out to get better pictures.

Solution? Bend the heck out of it so it doesn't rub anymore. :smash: Hammers work wonders eh?

Actually, it is the same supercharger. Eaton M62. The nose cone is different as is the intake. The OEM supercharger is one integral peice (minus the cone of course). This one is three parts; the cone, the body, and the intake..

I'll have to get a picture with a ruler up to it so you can tell size better.

Also, a correction is needed. I posted earlier that the Unichip wasn't yet doing anything..

This was a misunderstanding on my part. Dave corrected me the last night. The Unichip is retarding the timing but it is not adding fuel. They couldn't get the 7th injector to fire so they didn't use the smaller pulley and aren't having fuel added.

There are obviously a few kinks to work out yet.

Do you have a picture showing the part which the supercharge sits?

Was the lower intake manifold replaced?

I know but I don't see enough space for turbocharging so I am considering supercharging.

For pictures click on the link in my signature..

The lower intake manifold was NOT replaced. They designed their plenum to bolt to the stock N/A lower intake manifold.

Also, I believe that they are no longer in business, so good luck if you wanted to get parts / a kit. Additionally, unless they did more work on another truck after mine, I don't think their kit is complete. They never truly finished with my truck, so...

The hardest part for me is the mounting of the supercharger.

The engine management part is should be easy.

I think I have a rough idea of what they have done.

I was just able to get a top view of the plenum from your pictures and also a difficult side view...

Its possibilty of supercharging is very good.

Good luck with everything. I'll be glad to get any additional pictures you need or to answer any questions.

I think the only thing they struggled with was picking up an accurate RPM value for the perfectpower chip. I don't recall what input they used. I would have to go back and look at the pinout on the ECU and on the piggyback ECU to see what they used.
