kinda like putting a gt28 turbo on a car whose internals can only take 400, but you make a kit for the car that uses a gt40 turbo
While true, remember every supercharger has a peak efficiency level at a specific boost level/rpm of the rotors ect, while it might be possible to use the 1900 to make the same power, maybe for the boost they want to run the 2300 has a better efficiency curve, making it a better overall choice.

I don't actually know any numbers to substantiate my opinion, so if i'm wrong here, let me know
