[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 15540710, member: 121775"] Positive displacement blowers don't "build" boost. The boost hits almost as soon as you go WOT and stays there throughout the pull. There might be some small fluctuations, but the boost is pretty even throughout the entire WOT run. There is no peak and falloff like an NA engine. It keeps making power until you hit the rev limiter or the supercharger is past its efficiency range. Also, it's not like Whipple and KB don't make torque down low. There's more than enough to blow off the tires. Also, that loops me back around to the pulley-for-pulley issue. How many 2.9 Whipple/2.8 KB are running a 2.4" pulley? It's probably safe to say none or not many. Pulley-for-pulley, the bigger blowers are going to make more low end torque. Sent from my BlackBerry. The blacker the 'Berry, the sweeter the use! [/QUOTE]
