Would a screw supercharger on a peripheral port a) be a good idea at all or really dumb and b) work at least as well or better than a turbo? and why?

Not bad, not bad https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png 1000hp and that's still with a relatively inefficient Roots blower.
I have this idea that a supercharger might be a good plan on a peripheral port because of the complete lack of exhaust restriction. Plus, you could run the blower in front of the engine, in line with the e-shaft, and obtain a package with extremely low frontal area, that would fit in a small streamliner for salt flats racing. |
lysholm would be the only way to go. but rotaries have extremely fast moving exhuast gases, and if you want boost, then it seems counterproductive to let them go being unused.

[snapback]738453[/snapback] [/quote] theyre also alot more responsive. but id say that what you plan to use the car for should be a big contributing factor, and also note that there is ALOT more variation in kits favoring turbos as opposed to sueprchargers, so there would undoubtably be more custom work in a supercharger setup. |
