ahhhh.. that's not bad then. yeah, i would load their tune to drive it there, staying completely out of boost. i certainly wouldn't just load it up and that be the end of it.
I always cringe when people come on here and say they do that.

Vortech is fantastic!!
I have an SQ and with stock pulley (3.6) it's quiet! Added a smaller pulley (3.1) and is more noticeable but not obnoxiously loud!

yea i luv mine. i actually went to MPH, and let them Tim tune it. They are a really great bunch of guys. My only complaint is that i didnt save up and go with the T trim which was only a few hundred more right off the bat, but hey im happy either way
Whats the benefit to go with the T trim,it's just able to produce more boost, right? I'm about to be purchasing my S/C and dont want to be wishing i had went with a different supercharger. But my goal is to run about 400-450 rwhp

Yes,my cobraused to be powered by an f1a procharger, and that was a 600 hp car! I hated the boost curve that centir superchargers have. 100% rpm based. even worse than turbos!! turbos can reachpeak boostat like 4,000 rpms, but the centritakesredlinefor max boost. that is y iswitched to twin screw.

if you don't plan on going over 450, then don't worry about a T trim. the S trim is more than capable of well over 500RWHP.

well its true. The only applicatin i would use a centry cupercharger, is if i wanted to boost over 30 psi on a full out drag car. but i would STILL take turbo over that! for the streets, nothin beats a twin screw!
