triple superchargers????
Could we graph two of these on our intake tubes? Looks cheap and efficient.

i don't think it would work... cause a high end model (forgot what company makes them) each one costs like 900 dollars (including the battery pack, etc) they only put out like 1.5 psi at 1200 cfi... your Kompressor puts far more than that out...
the cheaper ones, that are good... put out like 900 cfi and .8 lbs...
ebay ones 750 cfi and really no additional psi

Doesn't the Bugatti Veryon have four turbos, and then the ME412 had four turbos.
The thing with that is, you're forcing air from exhaust gases.
With a supercharger, you're driving it off the belt. Didn't Blitz do a dual supercharger setup on a SC430 once and it didn't show that much of a gain when compared to their single supercharger setup?
I think the issue with four superchargers would be the same. So much power sapped, when there are other, more efficent ways of extracting power.

Yes, the Veyron and ME412 both utilize 4 turbochargers albeit, small units. The Blitz twin compressor system developed around 420whp on the JZS161 Aristo, aka, Lexus GS. It was a sweet system but similair power could have been made with a single charger. Amen isnt talking about two more full on S/C's, he is looking at Electrical units that develop 1-1.5 PSI. I wouldnt bother personally, but thats not to say it wouldnt work.
