Super charging a bridgeport??
#5
I think this would depend on the port.
A Full Bridgeport:
This would have the same effect as a long duration cam motor with a Turbo on it..... which is a no no.. Because your boost pushes gases out through the intake due to the long overlap. With the Mazda you aren't changing the exhaust duration and only the intake, However with a Bridgeport there is a period of time when the intake and exhaust are both open which = poor idle, poor mileage which would be enhanced by the supercharger/turbo.
Upper RPM's would be great.
I would pay close attention to the amount of overlap you are creating if you are going to boost it at all. Any good engine builder would be aware of this.
