    Supercharger and plenum volume

    Yes, the question is vague, there are many variables assuming the original size was optimum for power. exploring fact based theory on expected flow dynamics after the throttle body and before the pulling supercharger, pressure drop, velocity, volume/desity....whether the end result would...

    Supercharger and plenum volume

    Question: can power increase with an increase in plenum size only. With a MAF throttle body and supercharger inlet the same.....only change is a bigger plenum. An engine uses pounds (weight)/cubic feet (volume) of air to burn fuel. Is there an increase in velocity with a larger plenum as...
