This is a 5 year old thread, @Stephon but to the best of my knowledge all the info still applies. It seems we were having a good day.
Well, MOST of us were. I just wish we could have come to some sort of conclusion regarding super chargers. :D
 

Power to weight ratio and gearing is all that matters for speed.
 
Imagine that day we get direct injection nitro engines :). Then we can super charge 'em for sure!!
 
People are still experimenting with it ,you never know ,someone may refigure the nitro engine
an come up with something that might work.

My theory is the engines are already rotating so fast ,that by adding more forced air isn't going
to help it on a single 2 stroke engine ,however with a multi cylinder engine has more time to eccept more
air flow.
That's what basicly the guy in the vid is saying ,any more forced air is simply being blown out ,an will
probably put more strain on the engine.
 
Lets say your run your futuristic DI-Nitro engine at 30 000 RPM. That is 500 RPS, which means 250 injections a sec :)
 
So THAT'S where I went wrong. I was trying to run on sheep urine. I couldn't get a consistent tune but then I added the super charger.
Ewe wouldn't believe how fast it is. I named it Sweet Pee.
If you're going to use urine, it has to be from a crab.
 
You're right. I just researched that. Piss 'O' crab.
