you should look into the new rotrex supercharger http://www.rotrex.com/index1.htm... be sure to read up on the teck behind it. were as most SC spin at a 5:1 ratior the rotex can spin up to a 13:1 ratio wich puts impleer speed at about 125,000rpm insted of the tipcal 40-50k rpm. its a supercharger with efficiency like a turbo.

yea i've looked into those alot actually I thought about runnign a C39 or 93 whatever blower for a bit .. but i decided against it .. they were really nice setups but because of impeller speed they don't appreciate high boost that well

not at all really.. while it takes about 40 hp for you to turn the heaton.. it takes me like 10 hp to turn mine.. and I start making some boost right away and it pulls just like NA..does it give a huge jump in torque like the heaton does .. no.. but by no means does it kill low end .

I'm loving it .. i'm in the process of tuning it right now with vince.. car seems good.. haven't gotten totally on it yet .. but thats k

more updates later
