CB-BLR, I believe Jim Sommers was heading up Prochargers marine stuff, he passed away last October, not sure if anyone has taken his place.

Please expand more on dumps more fuel @ low rpm. Does the centrifugal use more fuel in the low & cruise RPM?

Whenever you recirculate or dump boost on a supercharger, it still takes HP to move that air. To move even more air, it takes even more power. Superchargers are basically pumps so it always takes more power to move more air. Turbo's aren't like this. So boost control is good to a point, but too much of it requires too much power loss.

If your not using boost control does the centrifugal use more fuel in the low & cruise RPM than the SC also?

The generalizations and psuedo information is killing me. If you'd like to have a technical discussion about boost management, Hp to to turn x-blower at x-rpm, and other such useful information then provide some more detail and facts.. You still haven't answered any of my previous questions, and I still stand by my initial statement.

If this keeps going I might have to tear the Whipple's off my own boat.. :grinser010:

So there is no one at LOTO can properly tune Prochargers if I will install them?

Yes & no. Ben @ www.mefituning.com would be your best source for a tune.
