One for my dog.
One that has no roof.
One that looks good parked at the golf course.
One that is being rebuilt by a guy named Nero..... will it ever be done?

Hey I'm going over things, I'm trying to find out just how insurance will change with the blower. I also have to talk to JR and find out what the service life on the blower is since I'll be driving this car a lot.

I'll be in touch. B)

I think that the service on the JR is: There is no service to do at all.

It is all self included/lub into the blower, when the blower goes you can buy a rebuild kit for it. (I think it is just a little more xpensive than a turbo rebuild kit if I am right)

I drove mine when it was boosted for over 12 hours without stopping except to put gas, and I also beated on it on the highway in quiet areas so I feel like this setup is just extremly reliable, I also did 12 hours back ride 5 days after the first one.

at no time during those non-stop 24 hours of driving had I any problems, never even saw the oil get hotter than usual. I totaled almost 3000km in 2 days.


hope this answer some of the questions you might have, comming from one who had a JR SVT.

I pay $117/month for full coverage and primary driver. That's ok I guess for someone that's 26 and has had at least 3, 4-point, $350 speeding tickets in the last 5-6 years...lol...funny thing is, none of them were in the Focus...they were in slower cars (well, the Zephyr could do between 160 and 180km/hr with a 200 ci straight six and 3spd auto). I hear nothing but good things about the longevity/reliability and assembly of the SVT...seems the extra premium you pay for the pinkslip isn't only for the extra punch, handling, and brakes.

Here's some info on Eaton S/C's for you.
Eaton Superchargers

It looks like 100,000 miles is no problem. Also no maintenance..
