How much horsepower does a supercharger add to a grand am gt?
65 - well over 300 depending on boost
How much horsepower can a stock supercharger make?
A supercharger does not make power the engine does. So the amount of power made is determined by the engine the supercharger is installed on and the amount of boost that the supercharger provides. There are also different types of superchargers that operate differently. Positive-displacement and dynamic compressors make different amounts and types of boost.
How much horsepower can a supercharger produce?
A lot! This all depends on the type and size of the supercharger. At boost levels of 7psi you can expect around a 40-45% increase in HP. At 15psi you can expect around 100% increase in HP. HP really depends on boost levels and existing engine HP.
What does a smaller supercharger pulley do to a cars engine?
The smaller pulley spins the supercharger faster, thus creating greater boost and therefore more horsepower. Popular "sizes" are 15%, 17% and 19% reduction. The larger percentage reduction gives a greater boost. Some mechanics do not recommend the higher percentage pulleys.
Why is the supercharger's tachometer on my 2000 Bonneville ssei reading -10 psi instead of 0 psi when the car is on?
PSI is (Pounds per Square Inch), not RPMs (Revolutions Per Minute), so how is this related to a tachometer which reads RPMs? Are you referring to the Superchargers Boost reading on the boost gage? If so, this sounds normal for a supercharger with the engine running.PSI is (Pounds per Square Inch), not RPMs (Revolutions Per Minute), so how is this related to a tachometer which reads RPMs?

What would cause a supercharger to over boost?
A supercharger is controlled by its pulley size. The smaller the supercharger drive pulley is, the higher in boost pressure you will see. Now if you go with a larger crank pulley, this too will cause you to see more boost. So, in all honestly, the only way to really over boost your supercharger is when you mess around with the pulleys.
Is super charge faster than turbo charge?
Roots or screw supercharger... spooling Abosultely YES. centrifugal like paxton,vortech, procharger, rotex it "spooling" depends... A supercharger is directly driven from the engine, and therefore delivers boost all the way through the rev range(roots or screw supercharger), improving bottom-end response, Centrifugal can give more boost in first gear than a turbo in first gear from a stop) at the expense of losing a few horsepower because of the load on the engine of the supercharger. A turbocharger uses exhaust gasses to spin up a turbine, which then drives an impeller, to compress incoming air, thus increasing horsepower. However, turbochargers are not very responsive at low RPMs, "taking sometime" to 'spin up', (really depends on the size of the turbo/turboes) this delay in speed, causes so-called 'turbo lag', where there is a delay getting the boost from the time you floor it, until u get boost. So, a supercharger may make a car 'quicker' from an idle start, because of its continuous boost(roots/screw supercharger), a turbocharger is better when it 'catches up' because it doesn't rob as much horsepower from the engine.
Does a BOV functions on an electric supercharger?
yes because theres 5 pounds of boost. but u dud need to do some custom work to have it installed
How much horsepower does a supercharger add to a Scion Tc?
About 40, it boost it to 200 HP. The supercharger kit from scion come with bigger fule injectors as well as a rage CPU to produce more power. It also has a warranty Wich most superchargers do not have because they easily break.
How a blower supercharger works?
A supercharger increases the intake by compressing air above atmospheric pressure, without creating a vacuum. This forces more air into the engine, providing a boost. With the additional air in the boost, more fuel can be added to the charge, and the power of the engine is increased. Supercharging an engine adds an average of 46% more horsepower and 31% more torque.
Can you use aluminum heads with a supercharger?
Yes. You will lose about 30 pounds switching to aluminum, and not have to reduce your compression quite as much. They will handle boost with out any problems.
What is more fuel efficient supercharger and turbocharger?
TurboCharger... Because you can control your RPM levels to prevent boost, while on a supercharger, boost is always present. On the other hand, at full boost Superchargers are more fuel efficient.
