Ive seen the projected HP numbers for the twin screw, but what are we looking at for torque? Will it be as linear as with the Eaton? At what size pulley will we be seeing the projected numbers?

neat now if i can only figure out a way to get this

http://www.eatonperformance.com/supe...rchargers.html
TVS
The TVS is Eaton’s newest Roots Supercharger that is capable of running with a high thermal efficiency (up to 76%) across a very wide operating range.

from my rep and do the same thing....

uhh why am i the only one that sees this as a huge waste of money. I was honestly hoping you could get the twinscrew swap for around 1500. Which would be a very acceptable, but 3000 is just a bit much. I could also see a high end of 2,000 dollars. But for 3,000 dollars i honestly dont see this as being worth it. To many people here still dont see the inherit downfall of superchargers. I really wouldnt put a price on this kit untill you get some actual performance numbers. Cause for 3,000 dollars this kit better include a complete fuel system upgrade as well. Cause no way in hell the stock system is going to work with the mentioned 320WHP. The fuel pump wont be able to handle that and i believe the flaws in the stock fuel rail will cause alot of blown piston rings #4 cylinder as well as other boomers.

This kit isnt going to cost 3,000 dollars to run, its going to cost alot more. Assuming the kit only comes with this
-Charger and all related hardware
-60lb injectors and wiring harness
-Tune by Tag

Now here are some other parts i believe you will need to run this kit
-Clutch
-Bigger Fuel Pump
-Custom Tune
-Bigger Fuel Rail
-Start worrying about 3rd gear in the trans
-Axles-wheel hop is a bitch
-Some major stiffening of the front end, if you think wheel hop is bad now, with 320WHP your going to be hoping into every gear unless your have a strong solid front end.

To many of you guys are way over excitited, i know whats going to happen. Tag is going to release this kit and only a handful of people are going to buy it. Lets face it, most people on here dont have 5,000-6,000 dollars to spend or the knowledge to install this kit properly. Theres going to be blown engines.

Mase i honestly think you should rethink the performance numbers and price ranges for this. I think you should drop the HP to around 270-280WHP drop the price by about a grand and you will be alot better off. I know you have alot of people drooling over this kit, but most of the people drooling are just doing that, drooling. Most of them will wish and wish and wish they could get this kit, but wont. Usually the people who are going to spend this kinda money on there car, are just going to go turbo and are smart enough to go turbo. Im sure your Kit is going to make one mean as hell ride, but when it comes to power and spending money on it, turbos always beat blowers.

But good luck with your project, id still love to see this come into production and i cant wait to see some performance numbers.

Why would we need a bigger fuel pump? It's also my opinion that anyone that is looking at the twin screw already has most of those mods i know i do. Dropping the power would be a pulley swap so i don't think they will drop the price at all. The cost of the blower, new endplate,s/c gasket, throttlebody adapter, snout, pulley, and all the other fabing is probably a little less then 3k. You have to think about the labor and other cost it takes to produce a kit like this.

Do you think a turbo kit will not require the same upgrades?
Upgrades for power need supporting mods, no matter the method you use. A bigger blower or a turbo will both produce more power, and stock parts will not be able to handle that. Welcome to the world of aftermarket performance.
