sorry missed the last post i got. as far as i'm concerned there is a restriction in the throttle body when only part throttle is used because of the butterfly. so the slight bottle neck caused by the compressor fan would not really make a difference. do you need full flow at part throttle? no... cuz your not wanting full performance when you totering about eh. with respect to the fan leaning out the fuel, this can be overcome by the speed controler. i plan to build it from a pic microcontroler so i can easily take a signal from the crank angle sensor and slowly follow the engine rpm up so that a constant rate of flow is attained. all done with software ya see so what can be so bad about that? sorry but i had taken into account that a naturally aspired engine can only go so far with fueling but what i try to strees is the flexibility of this to cope with greater demand by simply allowing the fan to out boost your engine if you so wanted.
ps, read previous post's if you wanna know what i'm bangin on about.
