Exactly... "drop"! RCZ was talking about increase. By the way, the boost drop on your 350Z s/c is is pretty much a screw-type blower issue only as it is an air pump rather than a compressor.

That's the case with turbos, but not with superchargers. Superchargers make their peak boost at rpm redline. They are not "load" dependant like turbos nor will the reduced backpressure on the...

Most probably because he did not want to run it into the rev limiter on boost and let off earlier. Since revs climbed significantly faster then without boost he probably cound't "time" it better.

That was my point. A larger turbo, and i have to state more specific, at a given psi might be more efficient, which means will it heat the charge less, hence more oxygen in that charge.
