    Powerdyne BD series and boost...

    I'm planning on putting a Powerdyne BD series blower on a 1.3 liter engine, that will operate between 5000 and 10000 rpm (drag only). I was wondering if anyone knows if this unit is capable of 15psi or more. I've tried to find specs for this head unit with no avail. Does anyone know the CFM? I plan on driving it with a 3" crank pulley and 2" blower pulley.

    Thanks,

    Dapper

    Max Rpm of that internal belt will be at 39k - 42k rpm and max boost because of that 9psi.

    Crank Pulley Diameter: 3.00
    Blower Step Up Ratio: 3.05

    Input: blower pulley 2.00

    rpm 4,000 18,300
    4,200 19,215
    4,400 20,130
    4,600 21,045
    4,800 21,960
    5,000 22,875
    5,200 23,790
    5,400 24,705
    5,600 25,620
    5,800 26,535
    6,000 27,450

    9,500 43,463
    10,000 45,750
    As you can see your going to be on the edge and the truth is that impeller design is done producing anything at about 35k impeller rpm.

    Okay, so I'm changing blowers now. Will either go with a Pro Charger C-1 or C-2, or a Vortech GTrim V-9, and a Paxton Novi-1200....any input?
