supercharger crank pulley Q&A Review

How much extra power does a supercharger add to an engine. AMR500 roots supercharger on a 75bhp engine? Is an idler pulley essential to run it with or can it be directly connected to the crank shaft pulley with a belt?

How much power you get depends on many things. First compression ratio. Size of blower. Drive speed of blower (under-drive or over-drive). Blower bypass or waste gate. Ignition retard system. Water/alcohol injection. Camshaft duration and overlap can kill good boost. A special grind for boost works best. Belt drive is predominate. It allowes you to change the drive ratio from under/over drive

Can I install an aftermarket supercharger in my car?

A supercharger basically pushes a compressed form of air into the block with direct power from the engine through a belt drive. For installing a supercharger you should note that the supercharger has to fit on the head, for that you may have to machine a coupling part to make the proper channeling and maintain boost. Also you will have to make the driving pulley of the supercharger in line with the crank pulley, so that it can be driven. It is not difficult but will take time and proper drawings to match things

What is the most ludicrous modification you've ever seen done to an automobile/car by its owner?

Went to ZCon (national Z Car meet) in 2019. There was a early Z car with a Chevy V8 and what looked like supercharger sitting atop the motor. A large timing belt went down to the front crank pulley from what looked like a supercharger. No! It was an electric fork truck motor adding boost to the V8 motor. There was a giant fork truck battery sitting under the rear hatch glass!

Does your air conditioning in your car affect your car’s speed?

No. Not generally. But I'll explain. Your air conditioner requires power to run. That power can be supplied mechanically by a belt driven by the engine, or electricity driven by the alternator off the engine, or by a battery that may be charged by the engine. But, modern vehicles have a wide open throttle cut out programmed to either release the clutch at the pulley for the compressor, alow a variable compression compressor to freespin, or turn turn off electrical consumers such as the ac compressor as well as reducing alternator output. So, your quarter mile time is not affected by the air conditioning, as the car turns it off. Now here's a little change to that. Electrical cars need the air conditioning to assist in maintaining battery temperature. When driving under heavy load the battery heats and can go outside of its optimum temp range. The air conditioning may reduce the overall driving range, but it keeps your battery ready for rapid discharge and maximum acceleration. Finally, there are some crazy ones out there who have done a refrigerant to air type, or refrigerant chilled water to air type intercooler set up. The meager 10hp drain off the crank pulley is more than made up for in cooling supercharged/turbocharged intake air and increasing maximum power on a massive racing motor. But in older cars, before all the fun electronic controls. There is no wide open throttle cut out programmed into the engine controls. So your 1972 Pontiac GTO is best raced without the ac on. For the next 20 years after that, let's face it, most of the car world was made of a host of gutless wonders and the air conditioning is the least of the performance concerns. Mustang II any one?

How much extra horsepower and torque can I expect if I put a supercharger on a 2018 Dodge Charger R/T?

It could be as low as 50 hp or as high as 200. It depends on several factors; supercharger volume & efficiency, crank pulley diameter, SC pulley diameter, actual boost developed, ECU tune.

Can a turbo charger and supercharger both be employed in a single cylinder internal combustion engine?

I don't know about single cylinder but Mercedes Benz OM654 engine employs both a super charger & a turbocharger. The super charger is not a parasite on the crank pulley but rather powered by an electric motor. This with an aim to eliminate lag associated with turbo chargers.

Is it possible to install a supercharger and an intercooler in an inline 4 engine?

Yes. Nothing new. Volkswagen and the earlier Mini Cooper S (I mean, the early BMW Mini) both did it. One issue is that the crank pulley of many current cars may not be suitable for driving a camshaft and a blower. The other is getting hold of a suitable blower at a sensible price.

Why is the supercharger connected to the crankshaft pulley?

The supercharger is basically a high volume air pump. It has to get power from somewhere, and a belt driven off the engine crankshaft is the easiest way to get that power. Best view of a basic supercharger I could find. The belt turned by the crank turns the pump inside the case, pushing air into the engine intake.

Why aren't all sport cars using forced induction?

Because there are inherent disadvantages of each options. Turbochargers - usually have the turbo lag caused by the delayed compression of air as it will take time for the exhaust gases to spool up the turbine. Hence, the boost comes a little late when you step on the pedal. Some manufacturers solve it by having an air tank that will store air pressure while the turbo is still spooling up, so as the case with Volvo and Koenigsegg. Superchargers - although it gives the best response as you step on the pedal. The supercharger having to get its power from the crank pulley creates a parasitic effect, that is it gets a little power, and that crucial power that would have been sent to the drive wheels. Naturally Aspirated engines, don’t have the lag, nor the parasitic effect. So it has the most predictable throttle response among them.

How do you control boost on a supercharger?

As far as I know, it's controlled by the size of the pulley on your crank shaft and on the supercharger itself. Larger crank pulley means more boost and smaller supercharger pulley means more boost. The opposite creates less boost. Some cars may have it controlled electronically but I'm unsure of that. As far as I know, the only way to control supercharger boost is with different sized pulleys.
