Re: supercharger
Yes, Vortech, Paxton, Procharger, the list goes on and on.
Those are just the centrifugal superchargers.

I don't recall ever seeing one on a 5.0 From what I've read its supposed to be a pretty nice supercharger.

Re: supercharger
Twin screw types are on all the time, right? I might be wrong. If its on all the time, your gas milage is going to drop a lot.
Don't get me wrong, its a damn good blower. For power better than the Vortech.

Re: supercharger
You can buy one for a 5.0 I have seen it. It looks like it bolts onto the lower intake manifold. They are more expensive typically than the centrifugals but I never hear of anyone being disappointed by them.

Well correct me if Im wrong but don't all superchargers run all the time? I can see what your saying about the positive displacement. The price on the twin screws are pretty reasonable. Right inline with the vortechs and paxtons.

Here is a link to the 5.0 twinscrew. I am looking to see if they are actually running all the time. I know the belt is always turning but I think there's more to it than that. |

Re: supercharger
I just read that Eaton has, as I would immagine others would, a magnetic clutch used to disengage it for cruising efficiency.

Re: supercharger
At half throttle VORTECHs do not produce boost, for that matter almost 3/4. They really do not start to spin until you get passed that point. Yes they spin all the time, but they really are not working ubtil they have a good soild load. Positive blowers are not like that, they are working all the time, which means your milage is going to be crap all the time. My old Stang I could get 23mpg on the highway, which was pretty good for the power it had.
