eany one of you have a supercharger on there nitro rc  Supercharger Specifications Typical power gains of 15.6% to 27.3% (depends on engine & pipe combination) Air intake is increased by 50-200% Complete assembly weighs less than 1/2 ounce Supercharger kit #RBK10565 for the Duratrax Evader BX/ST includes: Kit will bolt onto any replacement engine and will work for pull/non-pull start applications Completely assembled supercharger 30% Overdrive pulley High performance intake manifold Intake tubing and anti collapsing spring Innoflex tech drive belt Universal mounting bracket Belt deflector plate Custom flywheel and drive system |

i've heard bad things about those. People have said that they don't work, they're just for looks.

ya relentless is right for one it doesnt make that much of a difference perfomance wise except lean out ur engine big time and cause major damage and ruin ur engine alot quicker. but yes they do look very cool but i would not recommend this to any one

Yes it is impossible to force air into this type of two stroke engine. Since the exhaust is open at the same time as the intake port the forced air will just be shot out the exhaust with no power gain.

yes airpressure is right. but for some reason i once tried putting a straight 1/2'' copper tubing as pipe about 4'' long and i actualyy noticed a huge power gain that was very noticable.but any way thats the only situation where ive see something like that work. the thing is that two strokes need back pressure and with air being forced right through the engine and out the pipe the is no back pressure beause with the super charger there is so much pressure forcing it out. well hopefully u guys can uderstand what im trying to say

ya its a huge waste of money cuz it ruins ur engine then u have to spend money on a new engine and unless u get the same engine the super charger most likly wont even work anymore. you can usually just find a much better engine for the same price if not cheaper and notice a much bigger difference

ALL engines ar basicaly air pumps, so the more air and feul you put in, the more power you get at the wheels. the supercharger can provide more air, but I haven't seen a blow thru carb for one yet. Also, most motors(diesel, gas, 2+4 stroke, rc car, locomotive) have overlap( exhaust and intake open at same time). Forced iduction can work on a nitro motor, it's just not all there yet.
