Guest bastaad525 Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Just wondering... I've looked all over their website but I can't seem to find any numbers posted, either a percent increase or a straight HP number.... How much of a difference does this kit make on an L28??

Lockjaw Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 I have never seen a claim on it either. Certainly they should be able to tell you something if you called them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TexasShadow Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 With around 8 lbs of boost a supercharger should add about 40% to your original HP. IE: A stock L28 has about 135 RWHP(rear wheel HP). Supercharged it is about 187 RWHP. The big deal is the 40%+ increase in torque at very low rpm - like 2,000 - so the engine starts pulling strong there rather than around 3,200.

Lockjaw Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 I wish my L28 started with 135 RWHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 1975 L28's were a bit weak but I think starting with the 1976's they were rated at 170 HP gross HP - I know my '77 was - which would put them at about 135 RWHP. I think some of the 280ZX's even were a little higher unless it was a turbo model not operating under boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
