However, what if the ratio of engine RPM to compressor RPM wasn't fixed? what if you could vary the impeller speed and set the boost level wherever you wanted it, at almost any RPM? What if your blower could be PROGRAMMED to work with a MAP sensor, and a variable speed transmission, to deliver more boost at lower engine RPMs, and less boost at higher RPMs in order to provide a nice, broad, flat torque curve...?

Yes, you sure can....

WOW, Impressive numbers on the Coyote! That could easily be 580 TQ at the crank.
I originally suggested a centrifugal, because I am not aware of a screw type for a 302 Windsor, that won’t pop up through the hood (bonnet).
