 The
Current
Axialflow
Supercharger
Left is a 4 stage 550 CFM compressor. This is a typical unit
that could be for any installation requiring it's
characteristics. This happens to be a development unit, it can
be front or rear inlet. The radial inlet/outlet can be timed in
any of three planes. The nose/transmission housing/mounting
point can be timed in any of 8 positions. The can is shown for
size comparison. This unit weighs 11 Lbs.
These compressors are built entirely from billet bar stock,
there are no castings anywhere. Due to this we have complete
flexibility in design. While we don't make a new design for
every blower we can customize the flow and pressure at will. Our
machining process is highly flexible but it does require that
the part design have certain parameters. It is possible to build
these for almost all applications up to the limit of the
envelop. Where that limit is we can only speculate.
Currently we have built 450, 550, 650 CFM units. These have all
been axial rear inlet and front radial outlet. We have built
them in reverse rotation on the 450 CFM units. Right hand
rotation in all other sizes.
LATHAM
SUPERCHARGER
As stated in the history section Latham started axial flow
supercharging. While Richard Paul is the heir apparent to all
things Latham it is not a subsidiary of Axialflow Engineering.
It is Affiliated by being where Mr. Paul works. As such we offer
services for old Latham blowers even though they are no longer
produced.
-
Florida units: Very few parts
are still available for these blowers. We have no belts except
for the 1.5 wide SBC using the FI manifold. Some service can
be provided for these. Units that have been disassembled by
others cannot be serviced.
-
California built units: These
can be fully serviced and most parts are available. Belts are
available as well as carb adapters. Units that have been
disassembled by others cannot be serviced.
-
Full size billet blowers (6000
series) can be serviced and most parts are available.
-
Custom 6000 series superchargers
can still be produced at more attractive pricing than
originally sold. This is due to our new manufacturing process.
Flows to 2500 CFM can be produced. These are one off
compressors and tailored to customer needs.

Axialflow
Engineering Shifters
The
Axialflow
Engineering Shifter is the best made anywhere by anyone.
Typical construction is 303 stainless steel shafts, machined
in house on our modern CNC equipment. Attached components
are of like materials. Polymer parts are typically CNC
machined from DuPont Delrin, an engineering polymer. Pivot
pins are hardened to 60 on the Rockwell C scale. The
engineering is aimed at optimizing the geometry for the
shortest shift practical for road driving. We concentrate on
"feel" or "quality" of the movement. Typically there is a
reduction in the height of the knob for a better ergonomic
relationship with the driver. The factory has to make
compromises for the driver who is really not the sports
type. We cater to the small segment who are looking for a
real relationship with their car. It is hard to express the
accuracy of placement and if you track your car this means
better times. All
Axialflow
Shifters are warranted for the life of the car to the
original buyer. If it ever wears or fails we will fix or
replace it free, no questions asked. All you pay is the S&H,
same as when you bought it. While we can't express the
feeling, our customers can.
Benefits:
- Reduce gear stick throw
by 29% (compared to stock).
- Reduces the time it
takes you to change gears, improving your driving
performance.
- Improves "feel" of the
gearbox, reducing the chance of missed shifts.
- New improvements for boot retention.
Sales in Europe are handled
by
robbie@pettitracing.co.uk.
You should contact them direct if you live in any of those
countries.
Just to quote a few happy customers:
- "Rifle bolt sure."
- "Makes the car go from transportation to sports car"
- "Tried my friends stock equipped car today and really glad
to get back in mine, now he is ordering one."
- "I always had trouble with first to seconds shifts, now it
is perfect."
- "I never thought the 5 to 6 shift quite right now I don't
even know I'm making it. "
The redesigned Honda S2000
Gen 3 shifter has a new vibration
dampener mounted externally so as to allow the shaft to remain as a solid stick giving the
Axialflow feel as always. The throw has been shortened. It is still a "drop in" installation. All materials are USA made and everything is CNC machined in our own shop.
Warranted for life to original owner.

CA State Sales Tax Only: 8.25%
The S2.2 is here. We spent many hours with several designs being installed and removed until we got the right one. The feel of an
Axialflow shifter is legendary and we didn't stop till we got there. The two piece stick is made from stainless steel on the upper part and chrome moly on the lower. The polymer parts are made from the best engineering billet we can spec for the job. All parts are CNC machined on our own late model machining centers and lathe.
The kit is complete down to a puller you'll need to remove a part. Simple installation from inside the car can be done by the enthusiast using hand tools.
No parts from your old shifter need to be reused. We also include a lifetime warranty for as long as you own it.

The S1 is our most popular shifter having sold thousands since 2004. This unit is true drop in install, taking only 20 min or less. No spacer plate means no disassembly of transmission, no added leak part lines, no exposing open transmission to damage. The optimum shift stroke for the famous
Axialflow feel. All US materials made in our own shop. Truely makes the car more fun to drive. No missed shifts from 2nd to 3rd. All stock parts fit.

Mazda RX-8 Short Shifter DIY...
Don't
be fooled by the knock-offs on EBay... You can't duplicate the "feel" of the AFE shifter with
these Chinese take off's that are offered out there. They may reduce the stroke a like amount, but they can't connect you to the gearbox without a solid shaft and hi-Tec materials.
All US materials CNC'd in our own shop to aircraft tolerances.
