Default boost on and off

can u turn boost on and off with a Procharger? also would it be pointless to have a twin procharger setup or can one do the job. can u adjust your boost? i want max 20psi but want to be able to adjust it, thank you!

sure, if you want it turned off, just remove the pulley and drive like that...Or dont drive the car at all.

One will get the job done as they have models that cover just about all hp ranges...When you see a twin s/c setup, in most cases its just for show.

Do some more research on centrif. s/c's as its obvious that you need to learn more about them...the size of the pulleys dictate how much psi you run.

You can adjust boost with a centrifugal supercharger.

You simply adjust your RPM (short-shift) or swap out your supercharger pulley (the larger the pulley diameter the lower the boost).

to change boost level with a s/c you can use a dump valve .
