Reason why a larger MP90 S/C will be AMAZING on the 1mz-fe
Some tech info for you guys regarding roots type S/C's.
I'm only talking about positive displacement superchargers in this thread, no centrifugical blowers (Vortech, Rotrex, etc), that's a whole other topic.
It's general knowledge that supercharged Toyota's don't make much power and have serious heat issues. There are a couple of reasons, mostly having to do with the blowers that are available to put on a Camry/Solara or any 1mz-fe car. The biggest available is an Eaton/Magnuson TRD MP62, which is made to push about 7-8 PSI and makes around 300whp on a 5 speed car with bolt ons. If you push that much PSI and make around that much WHP, then it works great. If you try to do more, then the efficiency drops off until it stops making power and just makes a lot of heat. It's the same for a small turbo, and anyone that can read a compressor map can figure it out pretty quickly. Just like a turbo, if you use a compressor that is efficient at higher PSI's and flows enough air for more WHP, then it will make more power efficiently.
