aha! of course it is the exhaust gasses that spin the silly little
thing. I assumed (incorrectly that) that high rpms meant high gasses.
wrong! Thanks to all those who responded to me:
gcc-milo!zrm (Zigurd R. Mednieks)
rti-sel!amr (Alan Roberts)
seismo!USC-ISIB.ARPA!JDEIFIK (Jeff Deifik)
moncol!ben (Ben Broder)
abnji!saab (dennis)
amdcad!phil (Phil Ngai)
(Jeff, it pz, not ps, lucky Postmaster was in a good mood that day...)
So the moral of the story is...
If you want more boost,
you need a large amount of exhaust gases
which are cutoff by closing the throttle
so therefore...
keep on chargin!
(don't let up on the throttle, EVER! :-)

Conshohocken, Pennsyvania. Thay also make aluminum baseball bats. I
read about super chargers in a R&T collecters classic on MG a few years
back. I know abouthte bats because I've held one in my hand. (I won't
claim to have hit a ball with it ever, I tried...)
