Re: building my new drag car

The Vortech and the Jackson are different kinds of superhargers,ones roots the Jackson, and one is Centrifugial, the Vortech, and both are limited in the power they can produce. 9 times outta 10 the turbo is limited by how much the motor can handle.

very true as long at the engine can take it you can keep cranking the boost. and after a certain point the supercharger will poop out.

Re: building my new drag car

you can't keep turning up the boost on a turbo because you will start loosing hp. It's called peak effitioncy. superchargers don't poop out they give the same amount of psi through all rpm.
