Supercharger woes

[Bill McLeod <wbmcleod@cox.net>]

This is a question from a friend who is running a DOHC 4 cylinder with a 
supercharger (it's not British, but what the heck) and a DCOE sidedraft 
carb.  The car has awesome power, and idles fine, but when he hits the 
go pedal, it just flat dies.  Sometimes it is the infamous WAAAAH and it 
will go if he nurses it. Other times it just quits, dead.  He says the 
accelerator pump is putting out gas.  The car also has factory 
electronic ignition.  Once he gets it up into the higher RPMs, he says 
it is scary, scary fast!  Any suggestions from those of you who run 
superchargers or work on them? Thanks,
Bill
