Top: Lateral view; the red circles mark the front air dam/splitter and rear diffuser. Bottom: Rear.

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. Centrifugal superchargers are generally attached to the front of the engine via a belt-drive ...
