I was told that it can wake the supercharger up and make it work more efficently. IDK i post on an MR2 board in the UK and i'll see wat they think.

Never heard of anything like that. They are used on turbo cars to cool down the turbo....not sure what the use on a supercharged car would be.
+1 for the other '67!

yeah, no purpose in putting a turbo timer on a supercharged car. turbos need it to keep the oil running through the turbo to let it cool off after a drive, superchargers dont need that.

Yea. Just read upm on it. No need for the timer so scratch that. I'm hoping to make the car about 1900 lbs. with out a driver and according to what the ppl. from UK are saying the pulley WILL make atleast 30 hp if not more. They told me the header will produce a known 15-20 hp more and its lighter. Better inter cooler piping will make the air cooler oviously so thats unknown power. Deleting the Air bypass valve will make another 7 hp. Then air intake makes unknown hp. Im having a a exhaust shop make up piping to go to and from the intercooler in 3 in. stainless. Should make a differance and look good. Im also going to make sure that i seal the intercooler to the engine lid. I'm also moving the battery to the frunk. Thats right i said frunk

Considering your history with cars/driving, I don't know if that makes him cool or crazy.
