How Superchargers Work.

I found this article tonight and I thought it was very helpful learning what exactly a supercharger does, Pros and cons, and the different types.

http://auto.howstuffworks.com/supercharger.htm

Just thought this might help some of the noobs out or people that were kinda fuzzy about the details of a supercharger.

I can honestly say I wasnt positive on what exactly the twin-screw or the centrifugal supercharger were, but after I read the article I know what it is, how it works, and hey theres even a picture and a demonstration.

I say use ur best friend the search button. U can go stage 2, that gives a nice hp boost. Or u can make ur own stage kit, just have to find someone to custom tune it. Right now im working on my own kit- 50# Injectors, Bosch Injector Harness, ZZP 2.8 pulley & hub, GM Stage 2 belt, ZZP Belt tensioner(just because im going to such a small pulley), and just need a custom tune. I think some of the most common set-ups on here are Stage 2 with a 3" pulley, or custom with 60# injectors and like a 2.6 or 2.7 pulley or 42# injectors with a 2.8 or 2.9 pulley. Those are the most common set-ups I see around.
