Not that I know of, but I'm guessing it has something to do with a blow-through type setup.

I will be investigating this soon for my EA82 carby, I know of a cheap SC12 and I hate my EA82....

Many years ago i looked into supercharging a mini,

and with SU's being standard they where first choice BUT you can not pressurise an SU, it has to be Draw Through not Blow Through. (well you Can pressurise an SU

but you only have one throttle position, WIDE OPEN

, then bang...

I looked into supercharging options for my sherpa (oh no, my secret plans are starting to leak out

) and discovered that using a plumb back blow off valve will stop (hmmm...maybe that should be prevent) you blowing up your carby on less than WOT but I think I'll be looking into fuel injection of some sort, may still settle for carb though.

when supercharging with carbys you have to put the carbys before the supercharger the way ive seen it done eats the juce though
