You made this thread yesterday and were given the same advice followed by the thread being locked.

There are 4 companies you can call:

AA
VF
Technik
ESS

Each of them can sell you a kit, I'd personally lean towards AA for a centrifugal (and TS, but thats another debate).

what this 'twin screw' thing mean??? I saw a guy sell his kit and buy a TS just for the fact that it was TS.....anyone??

Centrifugal blowers are just that - spinning fans that accelerate air centrifugally and compress it that way.

TS superchargers are positive displacement, meaning a faster build of boost and slightly lower overall efficiency.

Maximum power numbers between the TS and CF are very similar. The TS is just as efficient, if not better than the best CF blowers out there, but it makes boost much faster giving you a much wider powerband. It is a lot more complex and expensive to design and manufacture, which unfortunately makes TS kits more expensive than a CF. We have manufactured CF kits based on Powerdyne, Vortech and ASA, and the Lysholm wins hands down in every aspect IMHO, even with the price premium taken into consideration.

The ASA is however my favorite among the CF blowers.
