The Original Statement in the context of the thread is still true.


"maximum low-rpm boost and power" compared to another brand or style of centrifugal.. not proving much here...
CAN YOU READ?!?! They are MORE effecient and able to make more boost and power down low. They compare themselves to roots and turbos, not just other centrifugals. You are wrong, face it dude.

A Blow off valve is to relieve compressor surge, (Turbo)

You can install one on a S/C to make a cool noise but that's as usefull as it gets.

Wasey, You are confusing Output with effeciency. Once again, I never said it was not a capable supercharger, I simply said that it was not as effecient as other designs at making boost at the bottom end. Shaft speed and pulley loading have to be taken into aco****.

Hp Gained - Hp to Pulley

That is incorrect... I already showed you why. Do you even know what effeciency is??

The Ability of a Compressor To Make Pressure with adding as little heat to the Charge.

It is always possible to make statements false by taking them out of context or changing the basic parameters of the discussion. When I started to boost cars I would have loved to have had a baseline of information before starting my research. That is why this is here, for you.

some one let me know if this is true or is some one pulling my zipper....... you can hook up a intercooler with out having a turbo or supercharger. i was told that the hook up is to
run the pipe from the t/b to the cooler and put the filther on the in coming end of the cooler. this sounds ok but i'm not to sure about it

It would be utterly useless. Actually it would probably rob you of a few hp because of the restriction.

It's Called an "Interfooler"

It's Totally RICE and should not be done due to the fact that everyone will make fun of you..

UPDATE:

Porsche Has Recently Introduced it in the 911 Turbo. Twin Computer Controled Variable. It kills lag and will give you power in an instant.

Ok FORGET This Old ****...PORSCHE Fixing the Automotive World One Part At A Time.

They have refined it to the point that there is no lag at all. The Car behaves like a Big N/A monster with a near linear torque curve.

Variable Closed


Variable Open
