^I find it funny that you and other noobs base all of your knowledge on this or any subject from a video of two busted ass civics on streetfire, like that answers all questions ever asked about the topic. gtfo with your homo streetfire vids.

lol 2 busted ass civics... what a fuckin pussy always talkin shit on other peoples shit.

shut up you fucking pussy...come in here acting like a fucking jerk off...you aint bout shit. i was comparing somthing with a video cause its alot easier to see somthing and explain it. ha, thats funny, dude you are seriously a low life E PUSSSY shut the fuck up and get out the damn thread pussy.


you know you can always tell the kids who got their asses beat in school and hwo had no friends when they come into shit like this acting like complete GANGSTAAASSS hardcore we are "NOOBS" lmao damn dude you are a POS

Now at 10psi, this turbo is running at 62% adiabatic efficiency. That means, its putting more restriction on the exhaust/motor causing you to have less efficient of a system and LESS HORSEPOWER.
You have your definition of adiabatic efficiency all turned around here. It has nothing to do with a restriction on the ve of the motor or the exhaust flow. Adiabatic efficiency is a measure of how efficiently the compressor compresses the air without raising air temperatures too high. A compressor working in the point of a compressor map where efficiency is very low will be putting out very high air temps.

Typically a roots style supercharger will have a lower adiabatic efficiency than a properly sized turbo for the application. Centrifugal style superchargers are basically like a turbo where the compressor is fed a work input off of a belt driven shaft by the motor rather than the exhaust producing a shaft input from the turbine. The big problem with these is that they produce less than desired powerbands because they dont reach full boost until high rpms.

Most of the time on a given engine a proper turbo setup with a large enough turbine that isn't going to restrict ve will make more power, but not all setups are equal so its hard to say 9psi on the turbo motor will make more power than 9psi on the supercharged motor. Too many variables.

thanks dude thats exactly what i was saying, so that Jslice can blow me.... see what the man just said Jslice ( "The big problem with these is that they produce less than desired powerbands because they dont reach full boost until high rpms".) is that not what i said in diff words JSLICE???


here is what i said ""turbo is gonna outrun him cause hes making full boost from 2 or 3,000rpms all the way out....peak HP really aint shit. and im talking a turbo made for that engine, and a s/c made for that engine, neither one smaller than the other or anything to restrict one more than the other.

Edit: with a supercharger, you might not want an intercooler, you will probably just want like a vortech procharger kit with the after-cooler setup, which is much more efficient (and not to mention stealth). heres a pic of one on an S2K. Plus you will hear it spool and blow off just like a turbo, that is if you're into that type of ricer shit lolz



lol... i like the SC noise better then the PSH PSH PSH PSH every time you hit the gas with a turbo lol.

wow. sense no make you. each time you open your silly mouth on this board, you make yourself look like more of a tard. The funniest part is that you don't realise everyone is laughing at you.

Fix this mess. it seriously needs some help.

lol...... fight fight fight?

m3 = 240 hp
6psi SC = about 50-60?

so me go about 290-300 hp weeeeeeeeee
