also,with regards to boost control,this particular item uses a magnetic sensor off the shaft,then when it senses overspeeding it restricts the INLET! would that work well?also runs its own sump!

want to know the operating pressure?inlet pressure 14.2-17.5psi
compressor outlet pressure 81-135psi!
just got the notes here. the inlet is 10cm diameter with the housing being 20cm diameter! would it matter what gas was passed through it?as it usually carries refrigerant which may have a different density,so would that affect flow?would have thought so!
