Had the ATI Procharger on a stock motor. For a use that is around 360rwhp or below, my view of safe and reliable zone on a stock guts engine, the supercharger is a very good way to go.

Now have the JWT TT on a built motor. At the present, that is a good approach. I have no brief to carry on single versus twin or one kit over another. For my purposes, I thought JWT TT was what I wanted to do.

For the future? What I wanted from day one and is yet to be available, a true twin screw Lysholm type lobed supercharger. Down low power like a roots blower, which beats the dickens out of the centrifugal SC and turbos, but it keeps building like the turbos and centrifugals. The gap between the power curves (to the advantage of the twin screw) is just huge. And with the seamless delivery of power, it has for track purposes the finesse you want and do not get with turbo.

But nobody has fiddled with it, the fuel system, etc. etc. Lysholm got themselves in difficulty over in Sweden and the commercial market for enthusiast cars has just not developed for them. Whipple has a version, and perhaps is expanding with some variants of their own. Hopefully someday somebody will realize what an incredible addition to the Japanese motors this type of system would be, and will begin to open up to it. The R&D is not cheap for this stuff. But....without all that turbo heat and piping.....it could be the next big thing. I hope so.
