Kinda curious Supercharger setups.
Who is making good power with a supercharger. Im talking purpose built motors shooting for high HP. I know procharger and Turbo setups push past 1000 all day but its rare to see anything on classic mounted superchargers. I have seen a few Maggie's, Whipple making 800-900 but that's about it. Any info Thanks

The key to making power is moving the maximum amount of air possible. Typically a manifold style supercharger(whipple, magnuson, etc) will be severally limited in possible airflow. TVS1900/2300 is generally going to struggle to make 1000+hp. The new 4.0L models could change that, but I doubt many trucks will have one in the near future. Procharger's on the other hand aren't so far off as demonstrated by blown06.

I can see the belt causing issues slip/stretch. I would just think more people would still try. Especially since Lightning's can do really good with a whipple. What about the new 8.3 whipple ??Whipple Industries Why not switch heads to Rectangular wont that open doors to LSA/LS9 superchargers. Kenny bell / 4.0-4.3 whipples ? I don't know Im just kinda curious why we don't see many builds like that anywhere on tech or anything. That style blower has been around for ever and still is.
