Could someone tell me why this wouldn't work? This unit gives 7lbs of thrust. If you could flip a switch and go from NA to an extra 7lbs of air pressure, would a fuel injection system be able to adjust by itself?

QUOTE Axial fans are designed to produce a great deal of flow but stall easily when up against backpressure. Which is why axial flow compressors are staged. Even early jet engines used centrifigual comressors (well, the Brits & US did). It is very possible to do an electric supercharger on these cars, but you have to have a motor capable of driving 3-5hp compressor and the current (30-50amps). It's funny, I actually like the idea of the auxilury Briggs and stratton compressor combo.... Call me crazy... |
