I think everyone is missing the mark cause this thread was about positive displacement chargers.

can we get back on topic in regards to twin-screws & roots?

a matter of fact, there is a lot of useful information in this thread. like like formulas I forgot it existed. its like a refresher crash course into fluid machenics. LOL

Slick, EL XR8 has a supercharger, so your comment misses the mark a bit.

Personally I couldn't give a stuff that theres a void that CAPA has left, that Raptor are trying to fill.
It doesn't give there affiliates/customers any excuse to come on this forum and spam it, making out as if they are the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Especially when I can't even find a compressor map for something that purports, and I quote..

With an ultra high speed Gear Drive in Raptor V all other superchargers in this class could not compete .... end of story. The impeller and cover are that good.


I get ya. How many times have I wanted further information on a product only to be fed something along those lines. And I'm not just talking about car parts. Pretty much all products and services I've come across recently end up with vague statements being released as technical information.

One person, who as I said before, has taken the negative feedback on board and toned it down. The only ones making the noise now are those who gave him the negative feedback and just seem to want to keep perpetuating it. Don't you know when to stop and make an effort to get back on topic?

Thanks "mate", you've just reminded me why I CBF logging on here for more than a year. I'm over it. TTFN.

,don't get me wrong terdbo's are wicked but you have to drive them wicked i know i've had a few.
They basically saved the diesel from going the way of the Dodo and for a younger bloke they're great.
I like Terdbo's but the aftermarket jobs are like social problems everyones got one.
OK as i'm pushing the blower so bad someone tell me how to upload pics and doc's.as i just went 242RWKW on the stock Raptor setup after work this afternoon.
One run and i'd say we should find some KW's with the tune dialled in and some more exhaust..
Will get the tune sorted ASAP.

Log on and follow what it says.

242rwkw. Doesnt a standard XR6T make that after an off the shelf tune is flashed in for $1000?

If the kit retails for over $5k I would reconsidering how much I wanted to keep the same car. A 12k BA XT + $5k can get you an XR6T these days.

LOL, catch ya later champ.

badcooky, 242rwkw on how many PSI?
And what size pulley?
Is it running off the stock serpentine setup belt, or does it have its own?
If it's got its own belt setup, what is the diameter of the crank pulley?
Basically, how far away is it from shredding its internal belts...

hahaha, I'm just telling the truth.
Blowers with internal belt drives shred belts when you spin them too fast.
You can "aircool" them, you can run tricky belts, whatever.
It still happens.
And I think it's wrong to push them without highlighting that.
