I was thinking along these lines but I had read somewhere that the more you open the exhaust end on a supercharger build you'll see a drop in psi due to less backpressure and as a result a drop in boost (on the lower end?). Does this mean less torque or is this all be completely wrong. That is also true, I was wondering about bolt-ons for accentuating certain parts of the power band more. IF we were to install lets say an exhaust with +18 hp gains for example would we still see the same number in gains or even more with a supercharger? Also do superchargers quiet down the exhaust since they remove some of the rasp? Thanks!
