XJR Supercharger? Explain how it works pls.
Can anyone provide any detailed info on how it works?
Any links to diagrams?
Please explain how it works from the pulley onward.
My car sounds nothing like this....
Click on where it says "Click here to here this kit in action" (volume on). I have the kit installed by the way. But my car sounded nothing close even stock.

For additional info on my issue please see below post 1st:

When the car is in park... and press the peddle down to rev the engine... it seems to have a 0.5-1sec delay. Normal? I don't think I hear the supercharger at all. The air filter seems to be gasping for air. And the car seems to cut hold out at about 3000 rpm.... rev limiter? When the car is idling and the hood is up... I hear amildgrinding noise from the supercharger. Dead center on top on the middle of the car engine.
Can anyone provide any info on the cause? Or direction?Can that mean there is a direct issue with the supercharger?Or something else which is directly affecting it?Please read above post for my driving issue.
Reason for new post was becauseI wanted to focuson the supercharger and its functionality.
Thanks

RE: XJR Supercharger? Explain how it works pls.
Assuming the XJR uses the same Eaton Supercharger the S-Type R has, this is a cutaway of the mechanical parts of the supercharger...
This is called a "roots style" supercharger, unlike the snail type which are basically turbo chargers driven by a pulley instead of an exhaust turbine.
Below is the wiki on roots style superchargers for your reading pleasure:
