The world is going to end 5 seconds before the first dyno for this SC is posted. THREE companies have this, and have it INSTALLED on a car and not a single one can produce even a preliminary dyno.

Maybe it sucks?

There are people who would rather have a twin screw for various reasons, if they want to go supercharger over turbo then to each their own.

that's exactly my thought. if you have nothing good to show, you don't show it.

It's probably like 210whp. LOL I'd be very hesitant to show dynos if my kit could beat vortech for least power made.

This is the conclusion I'm starting to come to. That vortech kit, even after two independent tuners got there hands on it, made much less then I was hoping for. I'm guessing this twin screw probably has a little better low end, but even less top end.

Honestly, I'd be ok with it making 220 hp if the torque curve was nice and flat across the rpm range. That's the point of these types of superchargers. They don't make big peak numbers, but instead deliver nearly max torque at all revs. This is why even the numbers being tossed around are meaningless. Only a torque curve on a dyno plot will have any meaning.

"Area under the curve", depending on the application, can be more useful and applicable than just peak numbers.
