That is like boost 101. Wow! Put that on a Billboard for the racers to learn from, LOL!

Whatever makes you happy, George.

Well I’m just trying to teach the other 90% about boost!

A long time ago (in the 80's) B & M had a GREAT book about supercharging (roots blowers). They used a 350 Chevy engine and made hundreds of dyno pulls on it using different camshafts, heads, superchargers, different pulleys, etc. and showed the HP gained or lost with each item (an apples to apples comparison). I wish i still had that book, I learned a lot about roots blowers reading that book.
I’m sure that the info would also work with a pro charger type set up!

Have you ever looked for it on eBay? I've found a lot of good books on there. Usually cheap, too.

Yea i need to look for it there, gosh it was such a GREAT book! dozens and dozens of dyno test comparing different combos. They would show you how Boost, horsepower and torque numbers, temps on blowers differ not BS like some people hand out.....real numbers.
