There's a contact number on their website, so you can call them for all the details.
A centrifugal supercharger won't provide as much low end torque as a roots-style supercharger, but the boost will (in general) kick in faster than with twin turbos.
Here's an interesting article comparing a Chevy 305 and a Ford 302, before and after adding a TorqStorm. The improvement in hp in both engines was staggering. 5.0L Fistfight, part 4 : The Storm Rages On - Hot Rod Network |
Huh...okay I missed this setup in my discovery. I put in a powerdyne myself back in 96 when I had my Cobra mustang and it was definitely a kick in the pants. I did however had to do quite a bit of tuning to deal with detonation. Thanks for the suggestion.
