I need some education on the relationship between boost pressure and corresponding power generated
Let's assume we have two exact same cars (A and B).
Car A has a Procharger P-1X making 10 psi at 7500 rpm and car B has a Procharger P-1SC making exactly the same 10 psi at 7500 rpm.
The max flowrate of the P-1X is 1275 cfm while that of the P-1SC is 1200 cfm (Procharger specs sheet).
The P-1X will make more power at 7500 rpm at 10 psi than the P-1SC at the exact same rpm and boost pressure.
Why is this?
Is it because of the difference in efficiency between the two head-units?
Or that the P-1X is able to flow more air at same psi? (Not sure if this is even a correct assumption)
Or something else?
