Ok, the only point I’m trying to make is 600awhp isn’t going to be a joke.
I’ve mentioned before, a lot of other parts are going to start coming into play. It won’t be about adding gobs of power…it’s going to be about getting the power to the ground effectively.
It’s a finger in the air benchmark. According to my baseline dyno, using paper numbers, I was exactly at 20% loss.
Even if that’s wrong (very likely), I’m using it as an average. I’m not using it to reach exact numbers. I couldn’t care less what the chp number is as it means nothing but some sites like the vortech one still makes reference to chp.
Parasitic loss in the discussion of superchargers is generally the drag on the motor via belt/pulley that the work of turning the supercharger takes.
As I mentioned, if a supercharger is capable of flowing 1200-1400 CFM efficiently, that means it is capable of making about 800-930 crank hp before supercharger drag. Even if supercharger drag is 100 hp, you’re looking at a blower that is comfortably capable of 800 crank hp at it’s max.
