Well I’ve gone and done it now! I was browsing ebay, and came across a brand new Eaton M112, 1,835cc per rev Supercharger from a Jaguar XKR 4.2, at a price I just couldn't ignore. This design will fit around the distributor nicely, the intake includes a vacuum operated external bypass and the exit flange mounting is square which will make fitting easier to meet with an aluminium, air-to-water cooler inlet manifold. I really like the recently installed Suprastick, so have worked out a way for this ECU to control the stronger T.T. transmission, so this Supercharger conversion will include building an up rated and Suprastick compatible N/A-T.T. hybrid. (Click on 'Supracharger Project' link in 'my garage' for build thread.)

Epsilon: Increasing engine rpm can increase horse-power without increasing torque & consequently, is another perfect engine upgrade to complement this torque-limited auto box. (Makes it go faster) How-To Raise Gear-Change rpm here. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?discussionid=230&do=discuss XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Zeta: Fitting lairy-cams, or budget-upgrading T.T. head with N/A inlet-cam, (proven good for 7,100rpm with stock valve-springs in Dan's video clip) mapped without lairy-boost or ignition-timing, can increase horse-power without increasing torque and consequently, is another upgrade to complement this torque-limited auto box.

I am expectant to create a 650ftlb capable transmission with Super-Fast gear-changes and if desired, raised rpm too, for what will add up to be 25%? the cost of an R154, All being well, this build should be configurable for plug & play compatibility with either N/A-T auto and/or T.T. auto installations.

I am expectant to create a 650ftlb transmission with Super-Fast and if desired, raised rpm gear-changes for what will add up to be 25%? the cost of an R154, by mixing & matching Tiptronic components into the T.T. & N/A components mix as explained in the link below. The build could be configured for plug & play compatibility with either N/A-T or T.T. auto installations. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?discussionid=229&do=discuss

To learn the answer for my curiosity, I have bought myself a Tiptronic box with torque-conveter for 0.99p on ebay. Currently this in the care of Benjy and as soon as I can get my hands on it............... I can confirm if the casting is same as T.T. & N/A boxes, or the next gen A650 castings? If it turns out to be same as A650, this idea will be laughed off the forum as a Brain Fart. Regardless, should it be found compatible with T.T. & N/A valve bodies, I will be able to add these components into the ever growing possible variants of Hybridised transmissions. The addition of these stronger components could raise the bar of these cheap as chips transmissions up to 650ftlb. Not the 700ftlb I was asked for, but nevertheless, it would be as strong as an R154 for 25% of the price.

This page had retired to become the last one on the last page and that is where I thought it would stay, but maybe not? This tip is a little ahead of it'self, nevertheless, I should soon have the answers to report. The strongest A340 in the series that I tinker with is the Tiptronic, Knightrider has been leathering one of these around with 600ftlbs? for some time now without destroying it. However, I have yet to see the casting behind the brain in one of these?
