well i dont seem to have my book from school that had all my math in it for figuring what you need for a given app and potential and being rusty im having a hard time!

i remember the graph for a boost app being called an island map (correct?) you figure out the paramiters of the engine and find the blower/super/turbo with the best map in your area needed.

so am i right? is it an "island map".

thanks
 
here is what i was looking for! not for the correct huffer though

I still don't understand how folks make sense of those maps.

its easy, the closer to the "eye of the storm" the better it will be for your combo. by doing the math for a given engine you'll get the info for a given rpm and make a plot, after say 4 plots (or every 1000 rpm) you'll see if you get to far out of the eye. then find another map (different pulleys/blower, turbo etc)
 
i had a book at school that had all the math but they kept them, one of my friends has one and he will be coming over soon so i'll have the name of it
