What would it take to make 1.44 lbs-ft per cid ?
Comparing NA to forced induction, what's varying?
1. Air density is going up from air being compressed.
2. Mass flow rate is also going up because you're pumping more air mass through the system with the turbo or supercharger.
Neither of these things are constants in real life so bear that in mind. Also.... very importantly.... remember that at the flow rates in real life, vs on a Flow bench, are much higher and therefore velocities are going to be higher. The flows are going to be much more chaotic (non laminar). And there's a bunch of pressure waves all around in there. The formulas are useful for gaining insight and understanding but they aren't always good predictors.
