Impeller Speed Calculation / Supercharger Gear Ratios
Impeller Speed Calculation / Supercharger Gear Ratios
Easily calculate your impeller speed, at a given engine RPM, using the following formula :
Impeller RPM = (Crank Pulley diameter / Supercharger Pulley diameter * Gear ratio * Engine RPM)
(Reference – some gear ratios)

* Our opinion – For longer life, never spin ANY unit past 50K (and even that can be too fast for some models), no matter what the “rating” is.
