im lookin at some free parts,but thats just the max speed for the compressor seeing as its constantly used like that for 9 odd hours straight,so probly be ok for a car for shorter periods at higher speed! can you guess its on an aircraft? and the intercooler is bloody huge too! compressor has its own oil supply and sump!
