Rebel Auto Worx is still working on it i believe. Search for the new TVS/HTV blower. That is another very good option, and its a direct bolt on. (supporting mods aside)

Its a roots. A twin screw uses male and female rotors and compresses internally.

yea thats wat my dad told me is that a twin screw is better because less air car leak past the rotors and is another reason they run cooler is you dont have to spin them as fast to make the same boost (i could be wrond but hey LOL iam drunk)

It wasn't a flop, it made good power and is still being worked on as we speak. Nothing has been mentioned because because of all the damn politics on here between my blower and your new hotness you should be receiving soon.

By the way, I can't wait to see what sort of numbers you put down with it!

the twinscrew will be good eventually, i hope. just lots of design issues. still thin RAW should have went with the 1.6, that would be awsome. Cant wait to see ur numbers 2k5ss/sc i'm still optomistic.
