So I was rewatching Mad Max Fury Road and during one of the last chase scenes they start spitting gas into the super charger intakes to get a small boost. I'm sort of a car retard so I don't really know but I'm pretty curious to see what you guys think

Compressing a flammable liquid is a bad idea mmm'kay

>watches mad max road fury
>several times
>a retard when it comes to cars

seems fitting

Thanks for ruining it for me ass.

Nigga it's been out for a while

>>14975028
then why are carbs mounted on top of superchargers and not the other way around?

but don't roots superchargers just shove air into the engine instead of just compressing it

> carbs pour liquid fuel into the engine
This isnt how carbs work.

Compressing a flammable liquid in the presence of an oxidizer is bad mmm;kay
>>
>>14975179
i think they are usually less peak boost than turbos but they still compress
>>
>>14975154
>>14975140
Only do this if you want to run >100 octane fuel
>>
>>14975179
Good fuck, man.

It wasn't gas it was nitro, as in nitromethane, which is what top fuel dragsters run on.
>>
>>14975028
If the fuel/air mixture ignites without a spark, no matter how compressed it is, you have serious problems. This is called detonation or preignition and destroys engines.

>>14975203
See above.

>>14975015
This would work only if the engine were running lean. In this situation, there's extra air to oxidize the fuel being spit into the blower.

>>14975179
If the cylinder is under partial vacuum and you 'shove' air into it, it's being compressed relative to where it was, even if we're not at atmospheric pressure yet.
