    blower overdrive

    typically on a roots blower over about 55% over they start to fall off they will make more boost as you spin them faster and faster the problem is they beat the air up so bad it tends to create heat(HOT AIR MAKES LESS POWER) with your motor size and engine rpm the blower will probaly be happier down around 45 over but a computer with blower boost and manifold temperature will be the real answer. good luck

    Boost Gauge

    Usually In The Rear Of The Plenum Or In The Front Seem To Work Best Which Ever End You Are Not Using For A Burst Panel.
