Here's a dyno chart showing a stock S2000 dyno with a centrifugal supercharged S2000 curve on top of it. Where's my 4 legged chicken?

Here's a turbo S2000 dyno chart:

Thats a linear curve with the SC - not exponential .


Here's the chicken anyway

It may as well be. It's worthless compared to a turbo power curve.

by definition it is exponential..

the derivative of a power vs rpm curve is the torque vs rpm curve. For the power curve to be linear, the torque curve needs to be a strainght line single value.

You can see the NA curve approximates a flat line (linear power), while the SC has a continually rising torque curve - which mathematically makes the power curve exponential

OK - point taken .
Anyone want to predict what the power curve for the AFSC is going to look like ?
I'm guessing (yes its a guess so don't flame me) it will look similar to the centrifugal but with a little more power earlier.

I would lol... I'd rather sell ps3 for much more than it's worth on ebay and wait a few months lol. What day is it going to be shown? or will it be on display the whole weekend? Someone take pictures and post ASAP if you're going please... wont be able to make it to SS9

SS9 Details

https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=125

The AFSC is very close to being done, and he is just working out some tuning bugs.
The SC will come with a tool to reflash the stock ECU to RP's preset maps.
He did not give me any power or torque numbers, only that he is still tuning it, and the included flash will be 5hp or so less than what the AFSC is capable of, for reliability reasons.
It will cost $4,300
RP estimates that it will be done in a few months.


Im quoting RX8SaxMan, if Im breaking forum rules or something by posting that let me know and I'll delete. I just know that alot of people are extremely curious about the axialflow supercharger and want to know.

That is funny, I saw RG several times but we never discussed supercharging at all. Maybe he was still sweating off all that free beer he was getting on Fri night.
I missed the banquet due to some problems at home. I let them give away my tickets in the raffle. Therefore I have no idea what happened to him in the second round of drinking.

I'm just waiting for someone to come up with a picture of the polished blower we had mounted on a spare engine. I saw lots of people taking pics of it, where are you all?

Is the front strut tower bar still going to be included in the kit?

Damn it, I knew there was something I was meaning to build!
Of course it will be in the kit.

Yep. 3rd year and counting. This is my yearly ritual now. I was looking for you and Steve Kan who was also there but had no luck on either account. I'm still in California. I'm leaving in the morning.
