Exactly!
I see the exact opposite of this low end loss having a TVS...
You just gotta wonder why a company would spend so much money towards R&D on a product that could not superseed the ol' product in all aspects...
I put little x's on the 2 curves..Only 10psi on the TVS vs. 11.5psi on the MP122.

TVS would have out performed in all areas with the same boost level....compare the next line down with the a diff pulley on the MP122 ...

At the lower pressure ratios the smaller blower will make more tq down low. I am basing this statement on what I have seen at the lower pressure levels that a stock motor will live at. If you turn them up then there is no comparison, even I have said that. There will be more TVS testing coming soon.

But are they really turned up? This is on a stock bottom end, no forged pistons...

). For the 95% of the people out there that buy a supercharger the 5-7 psi range will get them what they want and the long term reliability that is required by us and the customer. Look at it this way, we can supercharge 95% of the world and the other 5% has the option to turn it up now 
The 95% I am referring to is the "showroom" buyer that adds the supercharger on at the dealer level and wraps it up in his financing. This person is not going to want/need more than that.
Is the 6th gen EATON better than the 5th Gen, Yes.....will it make its way into the main stream some day, yes. I have never said that the TVS was not a good blower, I am saying that all superchargers have their place in the line up. I dont see a stock 4.8/5.3/6.0/6.2 needing a TVS1900

I am coming from a LONG TERM standpoint. There is not a STOCK drive line that will live up to 10 psi or more for any amount of time (god knows we all know that). For the 95% of the people out there that buy a supercharger the 5-7 psi range will get them what they want and the long term reliability that is required by us and the customer. Look at it this way, we can supercharge 95% of the world and the other 5% has the option to turn it up now
