We use a centrifugal blower in our kit, running about 4psi of boost. This provides a very linear curve, and picks up about 85-90hp to the rear wheels.

4 psi boost is 4/14.7 = 27.2% increase.
QUESTION:
can someone please explain how can you get almost 60% increase in whp with only 27.2% increase in air pressure?

How are the problems inherent to boosting already high c/r engines addressed - just curious. I'm a bit of a forced induction nut and I'm looking at an '02 "S" right now. . . Just trying to see what options there are.
