Makes sense for both the size given the data and the caution given the snipers.....

 

It can be aggrivating, but I try to ignore the trolls as much as possible. You won't get any flaming from me. If I can't be driving my car, I would at least like to be talking about it.

I see what you are saying. My estimate of the 10k RPM line is a little more generous. I give the supercharger 1.44 Liters at 1.0 pressure ratio. Still, that's a liittle less than you would like to see for a 1.6 liter supercharger. That Lysholm 2.3 liter supercharger chart shows 2.25 liters at 1.0 PR.

 

I've had a look at a few other SC's and they all seem to ref 10,000rpm at PR=1 for their volume calc./name plate.

 

Well hell....sorry for all the trolling... When I bought the 62 mm which is just about the same as a 185 crank pulley, I already knew we were pushing the limits of the S/C. Just because some of like to bullshit doesn't mean we don't know our motors... It is good to see the charts and be reaffirmed we spent our money well... carry on and I will move on.

Hell Doc, you're not trolling! I was just referring the forums in general, not anybody on this thread. I am real curious to see what you and Rudy are working on. But I can be patient.

I completely agree with you: crunching numbers and graphs is fun, but on the track is where the rubber meets the road. Timeslips tell all.

 

No trolls always have negative crap to spout and never add anything to the posts .......that does not describe you for sure. It's too bad we can't keep people from posting garbage with no real content related to the subject.

 

This should be a warning BILLBOARD that pops up whenever someone starts to post a reply on a thread. I finally had to use the "ignore" feature of this forum to eliminate one particular member's posts who seems to think that every post requires a personal witty response from him. I suspect that's some kind of personality disorder.

Back on subject . . . I have to confess that the engineering analysis, graphs and banter between BOOSTMONKEY and BILLY22BOB fly WAY over my head . . . but . . . I certainly do know that installing the 62mm Karmen supercharger pulley really woke up my engine. It's like driving a little rocket ship now!
