What is the difference between a centrifugal supercharger and a Roots/Screw type supercharger?
Q: How many miles will my car last with a supercharger? A: There is no set amount. Some guys last 100,000 miles others only a few hundred. A well taken care of car, with the proper tuning should last a while. Q: Is there such a thing as a Safe tune? A: There is no such thing as a Safe tune, there are however tunes that are more safe than others. It’s a generally accepted rule that keeping A/F below 12.5:1 and ignition timing below 18* on pump gas is “Safe.” However, all it takes a degraded or malfunctioning fuel pump and your engine on the safe tune is a pile of metal in the garbage can. Q: I want more power, how do I increase boost? A: There are 2 ways to make more power, increase blower efficiency and increase impellor speed. The easiest way to increase boost is the use of a power pipe which increases the efficiency, after the power pipe going to a small blower pulley or a larger crankshaft pulley will spin the blower faster making more boost. Be sure your fuel system and engine tune
