Which Supercharger is Best for You? Centrifugal vs Twin Screw

  • Опубліковано 14 гру 2022
  • Superchargers are a great and relatively straightforward way to give your vehicle tons of power. They don't require a bunch of fabrication or tuning, and are the number one way to get reliable power numbers without worrying too much about reliability. In this video, Scott talks about the differences between centrifugal superchargers and roots, positive displacement, or twin screw superchargers. The latter has many names, but all function virtually the same. Learn which is best for your vehicle and application and why that is.

    I have decided on a centrifugal kit from procharger for my 19 GT for the very reasons stated. Streetable, controlled boost plus ease of installation. I like to road course and have predictable power application. I also don't want more than 700 WHP so it will be reliable also.

      Are twin screws not Street able, reliable and not have controlled boost? Might want to pass this information along to auto manufacturers since they use screw SCs rather than centrifugal.

Thrown a lot of Steeda and BMR suspension stuff at it but its my last mod the wavetrac diff that has made me fall in love with this car again due to vastly better traction and stability (still spin if you hit it hard in 2nd but doesn’t kick out anymore) than what I was getting before with the oem diff.

    I have Whipple gen 5 positive displacement superchargers on my 20 gt350r and my 22 gt500 running E-85 w/ RPG built engines. Love the instant that torque.
    I'm in the process of changing my modded 67 gt500, (had it since I was 16, 56 now) from the 427 w/ a Paxton centrifugal supercharger to a RPG built 5.2 coyote w/ a Whipple gen 5.
    After that I'm going to do the same to my Backdraft Cobra, it already has a RPG built 5.2 coyote w/ a gen 3 Whipple. I track all my cars you have to change a few things and your driving style but you can make it work w/ your suspension parts.
    I've raced since I was 16yrs old, I've had a lot of power adders on my cars. From a 8-71, that old B&M and magna-charger, Kenne-Bell every generation of Whipple's and twin-turbos too. I love the feeling of a positive displacement supercharger hands down.

      Ess is just for coyotes far as I know. We got other engines out there besides coyotes. Terminators and gt500s run positive displacement stuff 99.9% of the time and other platforms I don't think have ess. I mean they sell them cheaper because they sell direct and of course they make power just like on3 turbos make power despite being cheaper. It's a good option for coyotes if a centrifugal is what you want.

      Try ESS tuning. Basic kit last I checked is around 4K. After buying your BAP for the fuel pump and your spark plugs and custom tune you might spend around 6K total. I installed mines myself so that saved another 1K-2K.
      If you have an auto then you are good. I have a manual so I upgraded the clutch which was 1500 and had it installed which cost my another 1200. I also upgraded brakes and rotors. That was a 500 dollar upgrade. Better tires for traction as well which was 1300 bucks. I'm still running my stock OPGs because I have no limiter on the car and I never shift at 8K. I usually bang at 7300ish. So that save me about 2K.
      You can put the kit on without all the support mods and still have fun but if you do that you will want to build around the kit as soon as possible. All and all it cost me 10K. I'm still adding stuff as I speak. Car is on my channel. Hope you get that boost soon man. It's fun.
