    Its a condensed version but pretty much breaks it down.

    Hope it helped!

    Yep...that was exactly what I was looking for. I remembered one was a little better across the powerband...one was better at lower RPM...or something like that. Thanks buddy, that cleared it up.

    OOhhh im sure. For one Kenne-bell has a kit nearly ready for release on the 5.7s and they swear that its OTW for the 6.1s. I have no experience with the Richwood group so I will take your word for the blower man. I honestly do not know.

    The M112 is an Eaton Positive Displacement Supercharager. It is not a "Twin Screw" style charger. It's intake air discharge temps vs a true twin screw aka Lysholm, IHI, or Autorotor are significantly higher per psi.

    At the moment we have a system in development that will be using a 2.3L Whipple that is Intercooled, will be 50 state legal, and carry it's own warranty. We will release pictures and a video of it on the dyno shortly.

    More good information

    I like that....uses are for: street use , Towing, extreme drag racing, and show cars.
    Let's see..... Today...I want to use for street use and tomorrow I want tp use it for EXTREME drag racing. Or that means I can drive it on the street on my way to do some extreme drag racing.

    Towing???
    Now I know why Larry (TNVIPER) bought his.
    That also explains why ford put one in the F150 Lightning.

    Yes for engine snap and reaction you cannot beat one of these systems. The power comes on so fast it is insane. Which is what makes them so great for any kinds of load and for doing wheel stands at the light!

    So Dave, you mentioned that PPP is working on a "roots" system. Isn't the Whipple based system a "twin screw"? Either way, I'm giddy with anticipation for all the potential options out there WRT superchargers. EVERYONE I talk to that knows anything about cars keeps telling me to be patient and wait for a "twin screw".
