Given my AU only puts out 110 or so at the rears, 301 isnt that bad.

A blower is a blower regardless. Mine starts with 2lb's and climbs to 9lb's at redline, unlike the BPT kit which has full boost early then drops off as rpm climb. The dyno graph i saw showed it peak at 7lb's at 375orpm then drop right off.

And that GT is making 362rwkw and managed to run 13.2@11omph on street tires, i know of a vortech blown car with 33orwkw and it ran 13.1@113mph with a 2.4 6oft on dunlops.

Why in the dyno print out is it making 301 rwkw ?
Still doesnt convince me, seen plenty....want to see real numbers, not dyno queens.

Looked at doing it myself, but i personally like the idea of a PD set up or a TT set up.

Blowers arent blowers, a PD uses Volume displacement, unlike a centrifugal that increases boost with engine speed, each to their own !

Traction issue.

You should know that its basically like launching a stock car with a Centri blower. That GT would make more torque at 2000rpm then the Vortech unit would at redline.

I was talking about the only pd blown car iv'e seen sheets from, the BPT GT. Yea TT is the way to go.
