On a side note, if you are shooting for low boost levels, 3 psi of boost at 7500 rpm only needs 5 hp compressor work at 70% comp. efficiency. So if you upgrade to a 320 amp alternator, you maybe don't need a capacitor bank...

Combustion engg here, my EE knowledge is sketchy at best.
At what mass flow? But it's probably close for 25# per minute.

An old friend of mine measured drive power required for a Vortech supercharger at about 500hp, and like 10 or 12 psi. It was something 40 hp! It's a very steep curve as you start to move some air.
