Supercharger/Turbor airflowblither 08-26-2003, 10:46 PM well im want WANT i repeat to do one of these, and im not asking which one i should do. but i want to know how much air these babys move? just a general question nothing spacifice for psi or anything i mean how fast do they actualy move the air? darkaccord 08-28-2003, 12:03 AM They dont' really "move" air, as much as they compress it. boosted331 08-28-2003, 12:52 AM They dont' really "move" air, as much as they compress it. Most superchargers or turbos actually don't do much internal compression. Think about it. If all they do is compress the air, 18 psi out of stock supra twin turbos should make the same power as 18 psi out of an SP74 or a greddy T88. But it's airflow that makes power. Boost is just a measurement of the restriction the motor places on the turbo. blither 08-28-2003, 07:40 PM They dont' really "move" air, as much as they compress it. if you really think about it they move air. the air is being pushed into the engine. but anyway i mean is this think like a big fan pushing lots of air in or what else could it be compaired to?
