that car is a sad example....looks like a junk yard rig to me....don't know anything about the car ie tune/proper injectors/fuel pump used etc...

Isn't it made for the 4 valve heads? that's what I was talking about when I made that comment. No doubt they make good power on cobras. I just know I wouldn't waste the time ghetto fabbing any kind of mounting system to make the eaton work.

I just don't like the idea of not being able to easily Intercool it.. Sure, air-to-water "Heat exchanger," may supplement, but that just doesn't seem as good.. Plus I like how Centrifugal have a little more expandability than a Roots..

I agree, Not enough information shown. could have been on low boost, guys a bad driver, too many variables. Also just because its not a vortec doesnt mean it sucks....Vortecs are nice, but they just arent for me.

Well, one issue is simple: I don't believe that the pictured is the same S/C FRPP produced for the 2V. I 'borrowed' a pic from droptop's page. I don't think they look the same. You guys?



My guess is that was backyard fabricated onto the 2V. No wonder it doesn't work.

****! How do I make the link work guys?

that looks like an eaton m-90 used on early saleen 2V's and Tbird Supercoupes. Smaller blower then the eaton m-112 used on FRPP 2V kit/Cobra and Lightning.

How does it not seem as good? Flush the system with cool water and have a lower temperature intake charge than the outside air? Push that water through the same design intercooler after the heat exhanger and you still can exhange the same amount of heat energy in a unit time. Saying that they don't seem as good just ignores the thermal physics behind what is going on and in its stead is...well, I don't even know.

u cant possibly say that all roots type blowers suck just becouse of one car.....

i prefer low rpm torqe over "lag" thank you very much

Exactly. Feeling 300 ft/lbs of torque at 1500 RPM is pretty much orgasmic when compared to the GT
