Whoa ! Supercharger?

Enough of turbo outlet restrictions, EGT, spool up, low fuel turbos, high fuel high rpm turbos. Can't we Paxton-ize? Can these handle the job?

We ought to be able to get a kit constructed somewhere. The ME's can do the CFM calculations. This will select the proper compressor. Once the compressor is selected, a bracket, longer serpentine belt, tensioner, some plumbing & walla

A different We've probably got the best source of fabricators around.

The different pulleys will change boost @ a given RPM.

Next the 6 into 1 exhaust manifold goes by-bye in favor of a thick tube, high temp coated 3 into 2 into 1 shorty.

Can we do this & not worry about fuel while boosting?
