Is it a gen 2 m62 charger that you're running Pat?


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 09-03-2024

I thought there was only 2 models 1 with clutch and 1 without

How do you tell if it has a clutch or not?


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - el_bandido - 09-03-2024

I'm on about the iteration of supercharger, the m62 model has various generations as the technology improves. I'm just checking it's a gen 2 that the kit uses as I think that's the same as the merc charger.

Oh yeah mine is the merc charger which I believe is the gen 2

Wayne if it has the clutch there be wires below and to the rear of the pulley on the front that is what's fitted to merc

That was what I thought, mine has the wires coming out. I heard they can be connected to a switch so you can turn it on and off, this correct?


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 09-03-2024

I personally don't like the switch option

IMO u wouldn't have a turbo then not use it so why do it with a charger.

U either want boost or not but yes to answer your question it can be fitted with a switch lol

I totally agree with you, but the Missus don't like the whine of em. So if I can have the option to switch it off when she starts crying, it'll save me some headaches. Very doubtful I'll connect it up though to be honest.

Earplugs or foot patrol are cheaper and easier
