TVS

Not only are some owners supposedly getting closer to the Stage V numbers, you'll likely have a broader powerband.

Twinscrew was unable to put down as much power as the TVS....

Rebel had their twinscrew and could barely push over 300whp with boost levels well into the 20's. The TVS with lower boost levels(18psi) is yielding ~350 with proper tune and supporting mods.

Twin Charge is unique but I think it would be too risky.

didnt Rebel use the 100ax or something? i remember thinking they should have gone one size larger... twinscrews usually have cooler IAT2s also, so you can push more boost with one of them than you can with a roots type.

The twinscrew has been laid to rest by the people who bought it in it's infancy. They could never get the tuning right, the output as far as power was inferior to the tvs, and it required an external oiling system. They didn't need to get a larger one, they just needed to stop trying to make it work. for what people got, it wasn't worth the money.
