Default Procharger i-1 Variable Ratio SC

This just came out and I wasn't sure if anyone had seen it.

http://www.dragzine....o-supercharger/

This is a centrifugal SC that would typically build boost linearly with RPM, but mated to a variable speed drive. As a result, it is able to produce a relatively flat boost curve like a PD blower, but with higher efficiency similar to a turbo.

There are some very real limitations to this technology, but there are also huge benefits to it. I'm excited to see some of the results.
