does anybody know what wheels and gears was ran with the sprintex dyno yet? i just look at the dyno sheet for the ripp stage 2 that was ran with 37s. the sheet shows that the sprintex has less tq but had a faster curve. the sprintex was at 200 foot pounds by 2000rpms and the ripp didnt get to that till 2500rpms.

I want to get back to Colorado soooo bad. Hoping to next year and I just might take you up on that. I really do want to drive one before I drop that kind of cash. Like you I do not do big rock crawling as 99% of the time I am on pavement but I am looking for more power.

You need to consider WHERE the SCs make power- not the final number. With a twin screw your looking at 50% more power wherever you floor it. With a centrifugal SC you have to wait for the RPMs to bring you boost. You want 50% more just from 4500-5500rpm or 40% more from 1300 all the way to 6000?
Each method of adding boost has it's own unique advantages, as well as dis-advantages. Positive displacement will come into boost sooner, at the expense of efficiency and heating. Everyone is entitled to there own opinions, as well as preferences. Transparency has been a cornerstone of our marketing and business ethics. But don't post the wrong information. We designed our system to benefit your vehicle throughout your power band.

If you looked at any of our dyno curves, or passes, you would see that we have no correction or "smoothing".
