Good numbers out of the box. Thanks for posting the dyno numbers. It helps people like me looking to get a supercharger with info. Not bashing, but looks like I'm back to getting a Whippleagain. I think I want more power lower in the RPM range.
What will more power down lownet you? Certainly won't make you faster.
The point of the twin screw is it produces more torque down low so you get off the line quicker. If you are able to keep traction. Basically you will be at full boost at just above 2000 rpm's. This is why all the manufactures who put S/C's on their vehicles use twin screws (or roots type, all though not as popular I believe as the TS), it translates into more drivability.

It starts a big arguement and we will forever have a debate on which is better. It all depends on what people are wanting out of their car. I kind of like the idea of a centrifugal with little boost below 3,000 rpms for gas mileage and such. But the power is always there if you need it.
It was a rhetorical question really. There is no better - just "different".
Gotcha

Centrifugal > Twin Screw

Yes I am trying to start an argument : )

Lieu910, if I'm pushing 75 more horsepower already at3500 rpm's and goobs more torque, how could it not make the car faster?
Simple: When you take that car down the 1/4 mile your RPMs should never be anywhere close to the 3,500 RPM range. You will more likely be in the 4,500-6,000+ range. Right where a centri blower is making the most power.

And still making less than a twin screw!
Youwill get comperable numbers from both. It's a matter of efficency and pounds of boost, not how the boost is made.As an example I am at 467 whp with my centri witha safe tune. Slightly better than your numbers I dare say.

Does anyone know or can confirm that when you near your rev limit the car will start to pull timing or fuel to cut back on power? I would like to know so I know why my car fell after 5,800 rpms. Thanks guys.

YES. The stock limiter is set for 6200 rpm. The CPU starts pulling timing in between 5800-5900. Think of it as a split second of 'softening the blow' of the rev limiter kicking in.

Now with a Centrfigual blower like the Vortech, you make your power in rpm. The higher the rpm, the more boost it makes - simple. You will see a nice difference in the car by simply upping your rev limiter to 6800-7000 rpm and making your shifts around 6400-6500. You might see a full 1 psi increase just with that.
