Default Comptech Supercharger AP1 vs AP2

Ive been doing allot of research and from what I understand as n00b is that superchargers reach peak power at redline because it runs off the engines belt and the faster the engines crank rotates the faster the belt drives...

So logically with a higher redline would the AP1 make more WHP? Or does the AP2 with the larger engine drive the belt harder/faster?

Cheers,

using the same kit, the ap2 will not make as much boost. the ap2 pulley at 5.5 psi will yield 7 psi on the ap1.

The only thing thats different between the Ap1 Kit and the Ap2 kit is the Pulley size. Everything else is the same.

AP2 will always make more power due to the increased displacement. I can twll you that on the Greddy kit alone differences of 30-50 hp are normal. With the supercharger you will also make more power with the AP2.

Are there any supercharged AP2s making over 500 rwhp?

Yes i am saying that. Vortech and Kraftwerks use superior blowers over comptech. Regardless of what kraftwerks cost it is. It is still competitive compared to other kits this is new of corse.
