Actually a supercharger has a bypass regulator. this means that your RPM does not control when your s/c will boost, but in fact how much throttle your giving the car does. This means you can give boost off the line, or hold your foot off a bit and save the boost for a kick later. Normal around town driving your car should stay in the negative 10-5 lbs range.
The most common and normal signs will be: * Oil leakage from the supercharger * Supercharger making a knocking noise * Lower or no boost pressure * Oil not present inside the supercharger
Yes, you just won't have any boost. Under normal driving your not using boost anyways. I know this because my mechanic had a gtp in his shop with an inoperable supercharger and the owner used the car until a replacement was found. 00gtp
depending on the size of the supercharger.. 30% to 40%
I noticed while driving my Impala the temps stays at the normal operating temp but while sitting still the car runs near hot. I don't believe my fans are turning on when they should and if this is the case how do I address it?
I have a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix and the two Serpinetine belts broke. I put a belt on without putting on the second supercharger belt on and I am driving it now until I get the other belt. If you look at the routing of the belt all of the normal systems run without the second belt.
This car is equipped with a Supercharger. All superchargers whine. This is normal and is inherently something you live with when you drive a car equipped with a supercharger.
The supercharger on a GTP is open to full at full boost bar and at that rate the normal 7.5lbs of boost increases to 10.5 at wot( wide open throttle).

The buggati veyron has 2 forms:1.noramal and 2. is supersport.The normal one can go to about 400kph while the supersport can go to 450kph.
All Chevrolet Impala's have a chanin that requires no maintenance or replacement under normal conditions.

If you're new to a supercharged car then you're most likely hearing the normal whine that a supercharger makes. They will whine louder the more you accelerate. 00gtp
