Reinforce S50B32 for supercharger???

[KennyTey]

Hello, i am new in this forum and nice to meet your. here with a problem I am facing now hope some one can help.

Recently I have just add on a stage-1 Dinon supercharger kit complete with only fule pressure regulator to adjust the fule supply on my original S50B32 engine(e36 M3),

But I am wondering with the original 11.3ps high compresion engine shall I need to do any modification to my basic S50B32 engine to lower the compression or reinforce the valve and valve spring and any others needed performence parts?

Some workshop member told me its the must because its alum. engine not strong enought to hold any more pressure other than original NA spec but some member telling me its ok because its 1-stage low boost supercharge(around 6psi+/-) which one to go.......

Just been very confuse so hope some one can share with me his/her golden experian or any proffesional can direct me what are the parts must do or to take care.

Thanks
Regards

You're fine with Stage1... If you decide to go >8psi then you will need an MLS headgasket and an intercooler or aftercooler.

thanks for reply,

My clutch was slip after installation of supercharger, when I remove the original clutch kit from my gearbox, notice the cluch was almost flat and got overheating marking.

can I still use the original M3 cluct kit(brand new) or do I need to get a racing cluct?

Thanks.

Just reread your first post and noticed that you are running an S50B32 motor... that puts out much more power than what we get here in the US. With an SC you should easily be around 350hp so yes you should upgrade your clutch

Do your have any web link got sale S50B32 6speed racing clutch kit?

I has been look around but only can find S52 5speed racing clutch kit from Ebay by F1 racing. Can the S52 5speed clutch kit use on my S50 6speed gear box?

I have just order a UUC performance segmented Kevlar clutch kit for my ride, and I use back my original flywheel without light weight flywheel, hope it will settle my original clutch slip problem.
