Preparation for the STILLEN supercharger

LOL.. what are you trying to do Liquid spin these poor guys brains?

To save everyone from googling to death, here's a good article which gives you some insight on adiabatic efficiency and what he's discussing: Supercharger & Blower Basics - Tech Article - Chevy High Performance Magazine

As far as this exact supercharger, and our setup, I'd have to refer to our engineers to get an idea of what this lays out to, but I will tell you the system has been designed around the fact that we're not pushing the current S/C to the limit, and within the current series we've spec'd, there is also additional trims that can support much more..

Spin my brain josh, some of us here knew what it was we aren't all new to this. Just for referance a whipple 140ax has has a maximum 30psi and a peak AE of 80%, and it can provide peak boost from below 3000 rpm, with over a 700hp capacity, where does the vortech unit fall?
