Holy crap! How did I miss this thread. That filter is recockulous. I can't believe somebody went through trouble of fabing that up. It's so cute. I think it would do better on duwem's turbocharged tractor.

Can you elaborate on the problems with reving like that, just curious what is happening?

The harmonic balancer is getting yanked back and forth by the parasitics of the supercharger, I have seen balancers break off the end of the crank doing that, it would almost have the same effect on the drive train if you did the same thing in first gear and if you have a non pinned or no key crank its even worse. Massive acceleration followed by massive deceleration is just not good on anything

What a wimp,never chirped a tire,never broke a 100mph.If I recorded a ride I would at least scare a passenger sh**less or find some poor a**hole to race.What a waste of video.

Awesome looking blower. Is that your car? If it runs I would be the first to ask for a video
