3. Looking at the inlet flow on the graph, spinning the sc 8000 rpm should deliver 350cfm @ about 10 psi, so I would need to run somewhere around 7500 rpm?

Am I way off or what? It looks like the ratio needs to be very precise. Anyone have experience with this?
Just curious - are you capping it to 8psi because you're not running a charge cooler?
