There are two main families of superchargers defined according to the method of gas transfer: positive displacement and dynamic superchargers. Positive displacement superchargers deliver an almost constant level of boost pressure increase at all engine speeds, while dynamic superchargers cause the boost pressure to rise exponentially with engine speed (above a certain threshold).

The lineup features residential and commercial models, including the EV Life charger, which is compatible with both U.S. and European charging standards. MSI's commercial chargers offer payment options and advanced management features, such as parking management via license plate recognition.
A centrifugal supercharger is a specialized type of supercharger that makes use of centrifugal force in order to increase the manifold air pressure, MAP. An increased MAP allows the engine to burn more fuel, which results in an increased power output.
An electric supercharger, if supplied by common stock electric accumulators, runs independent of the engine to which it provides its boost. However, electrical energy consumed is often higher than what a production-line generator (e.g. alternator) of the engine can supply.

U.S. patent 4,563,997, Figure 1: Pressure wave supercharger. A pressure wave supercharger (also known as a wave rotor [1]) is a type of supercharger technology that harnesses the pressure waves produced by an internal combustion engine exhaust gas pulses to compress the intake air.
The most common and well known scroll-type supercharger is the G-Lader (Lader is German for charger), designed by Volkswagen for use in a version of the Mk2 Polo called the GT G40. Launched first as a limited batch of about 500 cars in 1987, most were sold to Volkswagen workers.
C4 Corvette fitted with Paxton SN-86 supercharger. Paxton Automotive is a United States–based manufacturer of superchargers for automotive use. The company is the major proponent of the centrifugal type supercharger.
