The important metric we need to know is what the Supercharger RPM is. This will determine how much more 'room' there is with the TVS1740.
Since this a positive displacement supercharger (Eaton TVS), the manifold pressure readings are a measure of the engine's efficiency (or inefficiency).
The more inefficient the engine, the
more boost will be achieved at the same blower RPM, and
less HP/TQ.
If, for example, the blower RPM is maxed out on this application and the S65 is only generating 6psi of manifold pressure, that is
excellent!. That means the engine is consuming the extra air (re: oxygen) and making very efficient power. If, at the same blower RPM, the S65 was generating 10psi of manifold pressure, the horsepower would be lower, as the extra air is turning into pressure, and not being consumed.
