For a twin-screw supercharger, is the tune at 6 psi with a "6 psi pulley" different from the tune at 6 psi with a "9 psi pulley"?
I have read on here, and please correct me if I'm wrong, that with a turbo setup, one can tune for the highest boost level and then run anything less than that. As I understand that statement, it is because tuning for a certain pressure, say 10 psig, also requires tuning for pressures below that.
Does this apply to a positive-displacement supercharger? My impression of the characteristics of twin-screw pumps is that they jump very quickly to maximum pressure, so if I have a pulley that makes 9 psi at full boost, there will not be a lot of opportunity to get a steady 6 psi of boost and accurately tune for that pressure such that I could swap the pulley to one that makes 6 psi max and run the same tune. Another factor could be the different operating conditions required to create the 6 psi of boost for each pulley.
So there would be no way to have one tune accommodate both pulleys? (I know that swapping tunes is straightforward with the F/IC, which I will be using, but I'm interested more in the tuning process itself.)
