Okay you sent me to the internets to research this, I found this video and see what you are saying. So that's a next gen supercharger really. I'm already feeling better about the engine.





Do the shifters move with the steering wheel or are they stationary? My brothers and I grew up on forumula 1 racing so we are paddle shifter fans.
That's a wonderful video, I remember crossing paths with that one a while back. It allows the intercooler to be much more efficient, as well as increasing torque with long "runners", and can be powered and position the throttle up front for a much less restrictive intake path.

I imagine the test included varying loads...but they don't specify.

The paddles move with the wheel. They're mounted on the backside of the three and nine-o'clock spokes.
