RGMotorsport is proud to release its latest Supercharge conversion for the new Chev Lumina 6.0lt V8.Our in-house Research & Development division decided to take this awesome vehicle and add the RGM touch to it. After successfully supercharging
its predecessor the RGMotorsport team decided this particular vehicle was lacking in the horsepower division and decided to
develope the RGM bolt on MRP Liquid charge cooled Supercharge conversion. This unique conversion is a complete bolt on
conversion designed on the RGM Cad Cam program.
RGM/MRP LIQUID CHARGE COOLING. One of the unique features of this liquid charge cooler is that it is positioned directly
in front of the intake manifold which allows for a very short boost track intern so increasing throttle response dramatically. All
components for the liquid charge cooler are manufactured from aluminum and are highly polished, boost pipes are of a high
pressure blue silicone nature and are secured with premier stainless steel hose clamps.This is a closed loop system that has
its own header tank situated on the lower right side behind the front bumper for the purpose of lowering the centre of gravity
and does not interfere with the vehicles cooling system what so ever. This charge cooling system has a 10 litre capacity of
which 60% is glycol and 40% water.The charge cooler has a dual core for maximum efficiency. There is a dual Setrab heat
exchanger mounted in the lower frontal spoiler area which has its own electric water pump for circulation purposes.
VORTECH V2 T– TRIM POLISHED SUPERCHARGER. We utilize the Vortech V2 T-Trim centrifugal supercharger unit which
is renouned for its fairly quiet mechanical operation. There is high pressure oil feed to this unit for lubrication and cooling and
a gravitational return to the engines sump.The Supercharger drive is transmitted via a 10 rib serpentine belt and a newly
added crankshaft pulley. The crankshaft pulley, supercharger pulley,tensioner and idlers are manufactured from B51 (6082)
aircraft aluminum which are CNC machined and hard anodized to ensure long term durability. All supercharger mounting components
are laser cut and plated. All mounting nuts & bolts are of the highest quality plated tensiles and stainless steel
RECIRCULATION VALVE (DUMP VALVE). We utilize the RGM/EXCEL recirculation valve (dump valve) to ensure that this
conversion is extremely driveable at light throttle positions as well as to maintain boost when all out performance is required
FUEL SYSTEM.A RGM rising rate fuel pressure regulator as well as an additional fuel pump is installed which is only activated
on demand by the Unchip Q version. The standard fuel pump which is situated in the fuel tank is replaced with a Walbro
650 bhp volume fuel pump.
