A long, long time ago we introduced quiet superchargers, and have since made them standard for pretty much everything but our race offerings. We're talking 8+ years ago now. The blowers we make now are just the right mix of quiet with a nice little whistle at idle.

With a centri, slicks, and converter, I would think I could still knock out a 1.6 60' but be able to trap 130+,(I'm speaking YSI or the bigger PC) which would be insane and damn close to the 9's with the limited mods.

Quoted again for emphasis.

Your car will
never stop pulling with a Vortech centrifugal, whether you shift at 6,000, 6,500, 7,000, or wherever - a centrifugal supercharger does not lay over and leave you flat, disappointed, and wanting more on the big end where your car
wants to make power.

The V-7 YSi that you are referring to, currently tied for the most efficient streetable supercharger currently available from any manufacturer, is made by Vortech Engineering. Vortech is also the home of the equally efficient V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger. Don't get confused by hype. Efficiency = Power...and no amount of salesmanship will ever change that.

You really, really shouldn't spread false information about other companies Dustin. Some items were sold off in the restructuring in an attempt to make the transition from Sweden to our facility in California smoother. You try moving an entire company from Sweden to America sometime!
