Supercharger vs turbocharger

superchargers make power at higher RPM's and take more to make boost. a 2 stroke does not require a supercharger to run. My weedeater could use one but does not have one. Turbos make power better with low rpms. The old DD where ran at almost the limiter. Turbos take less power to make power because of less moving parts. Turbos are also perportiond to the size of the motor.

 

Richards HS at 107th and Central 1967... From Palos Heights actually and use to cruise 95th st , Bus's, White Castle for street racing.. Skips in Melrose Park was also a drag racers hang out in the day.63rd , Bogan HS ??
If you were a street racer we may have crossed paths although my street racing ended in 69 with the draft!!

 

Your weed eater is crankcase scavenged IE supercharged it has no intake valve look into the theroy of 2 stroke operation detroits are multi cylinder and a common crank case so they need external asparation

 

Use to run regular slicks on my GTO on Fridays and Saturdays.. Stayed out of Chicago and Oak Lawn seemed cool as long as you weren't noisy.. We raced in the forest preserve mainly, 103 rd st.Blocked off both ends so no traffic.. Couple Guys use to bring fuel dragsters on trailers to White Castles and then meet up behind the Ford plant in Chicago Heights and race.. Never made it to Dukes, I think that opened after 1969 when I joined the OD Circus.. BTW, saw your B'day is tomorrow, so is mine... Happy B'day to us !!!!!

 

A two stroke diesel needs one. Read up on them.

 

superchargers are also "perportiond" to the size of the motor.

 

Did ya happen to miss the quotes around the word free in my post? And, yes I know all about back pressure. I also know how it relates to surge all too well.

 

Well Mr Kansas, do you know what a Peanut Blower is? Wasnt a 350 DD just a 318 with a turbo added?
