marinedieselusa, use optimizer 6500 that has supercharger mounted. used in boats and direct replacement(motormounts/exhaust outlets) for gm engines, peninsular, does not. think also have intercooler under blower in manifold.

One thing I have to say is why spend so much on a supercharger and not take the time to get an intake instead of some pvc????

Thats an awesome concept tho, because a supercharger provides instant boost....

Me thinks that efficiency is pretty low compared to turbochargers as the supercharger uses crankshaft power to create boost at a significant rate compared to the boost being made IMO.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I saw that awhile back when looking up the new optimizer6500.I started thinking about using a centrifical supercharger but wondered if it could make much boost with a low rpm diesel vs a gasser.
