super interesting!

guys having experience driving with twinscrew chargers - do they whine loud every time you revv higher than idle or it just becomes audible from say 3-4 RPM+?

i know this sound is addicting, but i've never driven one... could you drive silently though?

You can see the MSRP in this pic. $3,495 to $4,695. Not bad.

It says it includes ECUTEK, I wonder if that mean the cable too. Stage 2 has the integrated IC with injectors and a fuel pump. Sounds pretty well priced.

VE is not affected by compression ratio.

The head may not flow 290cfm like the k20 head, but it probably flows around 270cfm. Head flow is great, but velocity is more important. The K has great port velocity throughout the rev range.

The ONLY one I've ever heard you could hear a higher pitch whine to it, but it wasn't offensive.. You could definitly tell there was something going on under the hood... If you knew what twin screws sound like you could tell it was there, but it didnt give the "Scream" that their known for untill around 2k RPMS..

This unit looks really good.. The Vortex Gossip is expecting bigger numbers.

Since this works with the OEM airbox, it should be more quiet than a SC with it's own intake / open filter. The only way we'll really know how much noise it will make is listening once it's released.

Curious on how well the intake runners flow compared to stock

I am sure it will cost more as well, but only time will tell.

I wonder how the hood clearance is with the intercooler underneath the unit.

It actually says an ECUTEK calibration. A cal is just the tune... you'll have to buy or borrow a cable I'm sure.

Because I don't think there is room for one at all.

yah flow is not bad thats for sure, 100hp/l is pretty hard to attain if your head flow is shitty. someone should put our head on a flow bench and check it out!
