whine n' a whistle

i just found this thread and after reading through it im wondering why you have the truck running so rich during WOT wouldnt it benefit to lean in out a bit and still be safe. I know na motors under WOT should be about 12.9 to be safe but i havent researched air fuel ratio for my procharger set up yet.

GM stole my design!
"[The supercharger] would handle power production down low. The turbocharger would come on at around 3,000 rpm and would handle boost duties from there. In fact, you can see in the patent that there is actually a valve designed into the system that would allow the turbo to bypass the supercharger completely at higher RPM."

With the same bypass control? Suppose I should have specified...I meant the method of bypassing the supercharger to use compression sequentially. We all know every dude with a turbo, blower, too much time and a beer has built a compound setup lol.

Detroit Diesel did it first. Roots type charger with wet turbos...

...they did not have super chargers, they had blowers. The roots type blower was not installed on 2 stroke diesels to super charge them, but only to charge them. Without the turbo, a 2T Detroit is considered naturally aspirated. As Richardman said, it would not run without a blower. It is only when you mount a roots blower on an engine that can charge itself that it becomes a supercharger.
