Turbo motors use power spinning up the turbo, It doesnt spin for free!

Both methods are worth the losses for the gains, Turbo's may be more efficient, but SG's dont come with the inherent heat problems, and thats what's always put me off tubbies, so if I ever went forced induction, it would be a blower every time methinks.

i was simply using the argument about just how much power a supercharger uses. in the usa, they always used to take all the ancillaries & power them by an external motor, ie, waterpump, oil pump, cooling fan, no alternator or aircon fitted to give a gross output of their engines.... legally, they could do this & then come out with outrageous claims for hp, ie 440hp in a std family sedan, then they changed the laws & suddenly the cars had 250hp.
the elec motor i was referring to was an externally driven ac motor. as in a test bed.

they have to do that due to there 7l v10 supercharged engine only produce 5bhp anyway lol

in the cooper, i take it that the blower is blowing thru the charge cooler, then thru the manifold (which contains the injectors)

and things like a hEaton are very inefficient in the S/C world... takes about 30bhp to push 280Bhp's (if not more for engine friction) worth of air into a Z22SE.... So all the "tuners" taking the engines to the 'safe' limit of 250bhp for the rods are actually humping nearer 300bhp into it lol

there a little stange, as they have two throttle bodys, to shut the thing up


air filter - tb - charger - cooler - tb - inlet with injectors

tbh im going for pulling power as small block touqre is weak lol

are the two TB's linked? as the one post charger should be for boost recirc as a crude boost limiter

i have not really looked into it, but its something to do with the engine braking and run down,

ill just shove mine out a chav valve lol
