Title: autorotor 2076 rs2
Post by: bbarnumboy on December 08, 2010, 04:45:23 AM

what do you guys think of my use of a autorotor sr2 2076  or opcon or lysholm or whipple, etc.... all the same essentially.

but the question is, does this flow enough for me to acquire 200whp or a little more at about 10-12psi?

my setup is itbs cams and intercooled....just dont want to buy a twin screw blower that is too small for my application

This might help you out figuring out how much air is needed. basic estimations.

I'd look for a charger that wouldn't be used over 85-90% capacity.

so yeah, according to that site, the 2076 is a little small for 12 psi. the other one 2087 is plenty.   have fun searching for some flow calculations!

don't forget to get a good clutch!
