VORTECH TO RELEASE TWIN SCREW BLOWER!!! another one!!

Vortech Debuts Twin Screw Superchargers with Lysholm


You heard it right. Vortech has teamed up with Lysholm in Sweden to develop a new, positive displacement, twin-screw supercharger. Lysholm originally developed the blower for the late-model Ford GT super car. The blower screw pulls the air down from the top, compresses it, and discharges out the bottom. This results in compression of the air before it even gets into the motor. “A lot of people have been asking for a supercharger that creates bottom end torque. Truck owners care more about bottom end then they do on the top end”, says Director of Sales, Gil Cormaci.

Intake plenums are a whole new thing for Vortech. The parts on their vehicles display were the first made prototypes. Vortech feels that their reputation will lead people to believe in their new twin-screw blowers. The kits will come with bypass valve, air/water cooler, and Diablosport tuner with a custom Vortech tune. These superchargers will be capable of producing over 20 PSI. The LS based kit will ship the first quarter of 2009, offered in 2.3L and 3.3L kits, with the tuner kits possibly shipping a little earlier. The GT500 direct replacement blowers will be available around the same time

Hmmm. Durka.

Nothing on price?

nope not yet...but damn am I hoping that th flood of superchargers brings down the cost!!

yeah that would be nice, i could handle paying a few hundred less for my KB early next year because of having a few more choices out to choose from

Interesting!

Wow, a whipple with a different sticker....You do know that KB owns Lyshom now right?

Wow! another ambulance chasher with a different name.

(Sorry. Couldn't resist.)

Does it matter? KB doesnt Own Vortech

I was merely saying it's another whipple and that KB owns Lyshom...geez man...Vortech is unlikely to lower their prices right now because people are spending the big bucks on the systems. It might be cheaper if it doesn't have an intercooler system which is how it works with all the other SC companies.

sure isn't very pretty, but of course i don't think the whipple is either. doesn't matter if it is polished or not just the design of the screw caseing. i think the clean look of the KB is just nicer which is part of what i like about it.

That just settled my mind. I'm going to go Centri. Vortech, Paxton, Pro-charger, here I come. I'm sick and tired of hearing about the twin screws. Seems like everyone has them these days. I'm going to be different.

Of course tons of people have centris too just not many locally

I'm just trying to be different. Hell I might just go big cubes high compression and stay N/A run in the 11's all day. 5.4 stroked better heads and cam........4.56 gears...........11.??

Do it David! You can do it!!

Use 7 inch pistons!

I was going to use 9 1/2" pistons and go tri-charged

Might send it to honda for a V-tec

CHANGE.....Your just like Obama David

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I said it

Yeah I said it

That was a kick in the nuts.

Maybe if you grew a pair and run with the crowd and buy a twin screw...COME ON everyone has one!!
