All the current superchargers are just as good as the other. They all have pros and cons. You were looking for a good, dd blower. None better than the 2300.

Well what's the pros vs cons of a 2300 and a twin screw? I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out.

2" is for supercharged/high HP applications.

Ehh 2" are a good foundation for future builds also.

Twin screws and whipples are the same thing bud.

I know, I said 2300 and twin screw. I'm not that stupid Zeke

litle88 · 09-02-2013, 08:43 PM

Lol I know that but a 2300 is a twin screw bud.

Thing is a 2300 is a 2.3L
Maggie makes a 2300 iirc it's their biggers size

Whipples makes them in
1.6's
2.3
3.3's
4.0's
5.0's
And 8.3's

So pick your poison lol.

Maggie is a roots type not a twin screw. I said 2300 because I was putting all roots type blowers together.

Me too.

As for which is better, it depends on who you ask. The Whipple has been shown to have the lowest IATs of the bunch. It does cost a little more so it's up to you. If you want something that will grow with you, go for the PC, Vortech, or Novi 1500. Grocerygetter is running a Vortech and is finally getting his entire setup dialed in. The ECS SC1500 (novi) has gotten some very nice reviews and will support more HP than you can put on a stock motor. It's also priced very well at ~$6300.

The Whipple is a 2.9.

I guess when you break it down the best bang for your buck is the Novi 1500. I have yet to hear one negative thing about it.

Just finished cleaning the car. She had a run in with gravel roads this weekend. Talk about facepalm. Show car to farm truck in 6 days. What a mess.

Not to mention he said he was on 555's. That I don't understand.

They video everything so in guessing we'll get to see it. I figured they would never even offer a time.

Raise the engine or cut the cross member. Many that are heavily modding their cars are cutting the cross member and adding a piece to each side so it can be bolted back on. Shitty design by GM but it is what it is.
