You've actually got it backwards sir. The design of the atkinson cycle means that a continuous source of forced induction from a supercharger would continue to push the fuel charge forwards into the cylinder where the naturally aspirated engine would have intake charge getting blown back into the intake. The atkinson cycle design's main feature is that when power is not needed, the engine essentially operates on 60% of the cylinder's volume by leaving the INTAKE valve open during part of compression, not the exhaust valve. The blow back would occur when fuel charge goes back into the intake valve as the piston begins its travel to top dead center during the compression stroke, implying that if a forced induction system could continue to force the intake charge into the cylinder during this phase of engine operation (cruising, low load low speed scenario) the engine could potentially be a little more efficient, as well as much more responsive and powerful. I would think that it would smooth out power delivery quite a bit and get rid of the major flat spot between 0 and 3500 RPM lol. Should obviously help a little after 3500 too but the main thing would be that this truck would finally have the guts down low that so many of us have griped about.

Well guess I need to do the research then. I'd love to see a PD blower available for the truck. I've had a few and would sure buy one for this truck if it were available.

Looks like someone got sensipoo for being told they're wrong.
Make sure you drop by Magnuson and URD to let them know that they're wasting their time... fill them in on how the "nature of the motor works".

Lol what exactly is sensipoo? And why would I do that. I'd be one of the first in line to buy one if they build it and the kit makes decent power for the cost!
