Procharger Supercharger Test: Beyond Bolt-On
|
This is an up-close look at the inner workings of a ProCharger P-1SC. The unit is self-contained, which means it's lubricated internally by oil that's manually added during the blower's installation, unlike oil-fed superchargers that are lubricated by engine oil that is usually diverted from the oil-filter housing. Note the temperature probe that sticks just inside the case. Our mission is to determine how hot the oil inside the blower gets and to compare it to the engine-oil's temperature as it enters the supercharger. This calibrated probe will be connected to a dual-channel pyrometer, and a similar sensor will monitor the heat levels of the engine oil. View Related Article
