I was wondering what is the difference between the Si trim blower and the T-trim blower.. I am asking becuase my original charger has gone bad twice now and they said that they would upgrade me to a ttrim no charge.... So now when i called them yesterday they were like o yeah we didnt give you a T-trim we gave you an Si-trim...... DIDNT even call me to let me know, they said there reasoning was that it is a way more efficent charger.... i was just hoping for some input here

Thanks guys

 

I have not been able to find alot of info on it but from the specs it is a more efficent super charger.


Si-TRIM
MAX IMPELLER SPEED 55,000 RPM
PSIG 26PSI
FLOW/CFM 1,150
HORSE POWER 800
ISENTROPIC
EFFICIENCEY 78%


T-TRIM
MAX IMPELLER SPEED 55,000 RPM
PSIG 26PSI
FLOW/CFM 1,200
HORSE POWER 825
ISENTROPIC
EFFICIENCEY 73%

 

the t-trim is WAYYY more expensive. thats why they didnt give it to you.
plus the t-trim makes more HP and boost. If they told you they were giving you a T-trim, i'd ask for the t-trim

 

Id say the ****ed you

 

Does anyone know off the top of there head how much an Si trim upgrade is????

 

max boost on the T & Si trim is the same and the hp is only 25 more for the T-trim (not that you would every see 800 on a VQ with it).

 

think its around $400 or so

 

Is there a way to visibly tell the difference between the trims?

As in a model number spec?

 

I would not go as far as saying that, sucks they did not do what they said but he is getting a free upgrade to a better s/c

 

The si trim upgrade is 366.00 bucks... i just had it done before my vortech kit was shipped to me

 

My bad.. Shoulda inserted sarcasm.... Not that any of it matters or he will even push past 400whp..

 

also without ever looking at the stock SC-trim impeller you'd never know. My serial badge still says SC trim.

 

your better off with the SI trim only because its cheaper . With out an all cog pulley system to take advantage of either of the T or SI trims . You will never take the blowers to thier limits . Belt slip will happen some where near half of what the blower can put out .

 

Technically, the don't have to give you anything. Although it's not a T-Trim, I would be happy with the SI over the normal SQ.

 

Oo trust me i will make way more that 400whp i was at 430 before on my stock blower!!! so i wanna try to get high 4's and then add a 50-100 shot of nitrious

 

Trust me, you won't be disappointed with the Si trim. A few people have it already and are very happy so far. Dyno's should be following soon. I am going to upgrade to the Si trim in the very near future too. If you got it for free, even better. You are a lucky guy. If you don't like it, I'll be more than happy to trade with you.

 

JayZ I'm at 418whp on a stock block @ 11psi with the standard v2 charger thats weird.....

 

The 430 you made before and a 35 shot would be good. High 400s and a 100 shot on a stock motor won't last long, but it would be fun

 

He has a built bottem end so it isnt stock and would deff be able to handle 500+whp

 

that would work then
