Years ago superchargers were the typical X-71 based clunky heat generating units, but technology has changed all that. The OEM's are exploring the HP limits and that drove the need for larger and more efficient supercharges was evident.

We have covered the internets and the misinformation on the web, but it is always worth covering again. Dave has never sat in on one these discussions so it was good to hear his perspective. People say and do the craziest stuff and you need to know when not to listen.

info_outline 147- Power and Speed - Dumpster FireThe Power and Speed Podcast
Tom said it best, dumpster fire.
info_outlineMike and Tom in studio. Cletus is caught in traffic.
Tom was away on vacation last week... what did he do. Nothing, including return Mikes calls. I do not think we have heard the last of that one.
Lots happened in the world why the guys were off. RNC nominated Trump, the DNC just got underway. Wow, sure called that one wrong huh "media". DNC opens with some leaks, and Mike shares his view on Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
PowerStop brakes. Fail on QC, overall not terrible. I think in the end if you asked the guys opinion on this stuff, it's not bad. Worked out cheaper than an auto parts store, but just check everything over pretty well before you take everything apart.
We always get requests for people to come back. Howard from Redline, JC from ATI, and already Robert from Forced Performance. We will always be happy to have guys back and this guest is no exception.
Keith Jones from Total Seal Pistons Rings joined the guys for a second installment of ring tech. For those of you that did not listen to the first one, stop reading and do that now. This guy is "The Guy" when it comes to rings. Tom was quite candid in saying when they, Manley Performance, need to know about rings Keith is the guy they call. That alone speaks volumes. Keith was nice enough to let everyone know how to get in touch with him, and if you are going through an engine, we suggest you make that call.
Live again next week Monday night at 7:00 PM EST on Mixlr.com. Call in number 908 751 0211. Live callers welcome, and this will be the line for giveaways.
