I am supercharger lord of mt.net
I think you're the only person who realized that a supercharger (like a turbo) is best ran with out pow-pow-POWERCARDZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Way back when, I ran my M45 hard and squeezed 168whp out of it. No easy feat 7 years ago. I was so proud.
Now that you're on par with average turbo setups
you need to step it up and really spin that blower. Stock engines are for turds. I remember reading that TDR had a MP62 over 280whp, don't remember the engine management though. I'm sure with a built short block you could squeeze all the power you'll ever need out of the blower.
I thought I read somewhere that you un-throttled your MP62, or am I just making **** up?

The tdr nb is 280hp with a built motor, a greedy piggy back, ported intake and ported blower. The owner thinks there is no way my car is putting down 250 even with a dyno sheet. I could make well over 300 with his motor/blower/intake.
Car is down tuned 10 to 15hp to make it 91oc safe and is getting a 3 psi cut to keep from braking a rob.

Yeah, but those are Canadian ft/lbs. You have to multiply by 0.82 to get SAE.

That's actually some pretty impressive work for a Rotrex. Torque ramp is sadly characteristic of most centrifugal blower setups, but a very impressive top end.

Yeah torque sucks and I fully agree. I am considering dropping the RPM limit more to spin the blower faster, earlier. If I drop to 7200RPM I should be in the 210-220ft/lbs area and likely break the 300whp mark.

Have you ever considered using a form of active boost control, such as a servo-controlled bypass or variable inlet restrictor? It seems that, within the RPM and compressor efficiency limits of the supercharger, this would give a more favorable torque curve as compared to a static inlet restriction.
