SUPERCHARGING AND TWIN TURBO THE LT-5 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Also dont forget the efficiency of turbochargers versus supercharger. Mos turbochargers can see up to 80% efficiency while superchargers have always been lower with the roots blower the lowest (around 40%)

There is a new type of bearing superchareger (rotrex maybe) instead of gears and it has seen efficiency of up to 80% and higher.

Just thought Id throw that in.

Im am very interxted in yalls progress as I am about to buy a ZR1 and owuld like to run extremely low boost ~3.5 to 4 psi until I get some low comp pistons and then maybe crank it up to around 8. Im still kinda new to these motors though so that plan may change.

What time do you guys plan on having these on sale
