Do you have a link to the new Vortech? I haven't heard about a new blower from them yet.

Yeah, I would like a link too. The only self-contained head units I have heard of are from Paxton and Procharger.

I kind of figured it was an internally lubricated unit. I thought we were talking along the lines of a gen 2 Whipple upgrade.

If you're gonna bother going blower I'd personally suggest Kenne bell, whipple or saleen. Tons of low end grunt and they all have the ability with a pulley swap and a couple other things of getting massive power.

I would run away from any Rousch products and find a good twin-screw from KB, Whipple or Saleen.

The new one is a twin screw.

EDIT: Take my comment with a grain of salt. Its still called a Roots blower, but it looks like a twin screw. Time will tell.
