Ah yes indeed this is a supercharger driven by the crank. Must be why the build quality is junk.

I looked on FMs page specifically about dynos but none of them start from way way low rpms. They all start at +2.5-3k where the turbo is already making 1-2 psi.

The dyno i posted is of a LS1 before and after.

Squares are rectangles, too.

But, the entire world calls them "squares," and we know which shape is being referred to when someone says "square."
