that would be a roots, as its just an air pump. boost is directly proportional to rpm and the tq curve can be tuned to be super flat. it wont make the most power, but if you're ok with what it can make, then you can take advantage of what it does offer namely response and linearity. a rotrex usually isnt as linear, but if its close enough and makes a lot more up top, then we may see that being the more popular route to take.
