Torque booster for supercharger

While using a smaller pulley on the blower will give you more output, it also runs the blower at higher speeds which will decrease the life of the blower. Unless

While using a smaller pulley on the blower will give you more output, it also runs the blower at higher speeds which will decrease the life of the blower. Unless you are sure your blower can handle the higher RPMs, you should get a bigger blower.

As per others, the piping/valves/controls is just a matter of figuring out where to make it fit.

Can it be done on a 370Z? I don't see why not (assuming there's enough room for everything to fit). But you may be running the blower outside of it's reliable range.

YMMV

Yeah this wouldn't be worth it on the v3. V2 ti would make it worth it.

In fact, you could almost just find the right spring in your bpv to open at a set psi to bleed out boost. Only problem is once you let off it will be the mad chatter.

^ this, i'm already pushing my blower 2-3000 rpm over what they recommend.

Its defiantly a good idea, I might try this when I pick up this v2.

Topz, whats the V2 good for? in terms on RPM

Turbosupercharged aviation engines are/were designed to make full power at some critical altitude. Below that altitude, the waste gate is opened incrementally to some pressure value so that the intake system or pistons don't rupture. Above that altitude, the waste gate is fully closed and and power begins dropping with increasing altitude.

So, the waste-gated overdriven compressor is nothing new.
