Will the RX-7 flowmeter add performance to by 6psi Sebring supercharger or Greddy turbo?

I don’t know. I don’t own a boosted car. Only a Dyno can tell you for sure but I suspect that a 6psi system will not see much gains from the flowmeter interchange. When I had the flowmeter bench tested it flowed 165 CFM at 10 inches water and 300 CFM at 28 inches water. The 10 and 28 inches are flowbench *standards* for NA and boosted respectivly. (The standards are generalizations so YMMV). A 6 psi boosted 1.6 will suck 300 CFM at the flowmeter at 7200 rpm (source = Norm Garrett at 2/1999 tech day) so the flowmeter is sized adequately for small boost levels. More boost, displacement, or rpm will definatly require something larger. UPDATE 4/4/99 See Chris Erber’s installion of a RX-7 flowmeter on his 8 psi Sebring equipped Miata. 9) You stated before that it is important to keep the resonance chamber in the intake system for good torque. Do you know how/why the resonance chamber works?? Not really. All I know is that if a chamber is not there then you’ll get a dip in the torque output,
