So the new unit fits on top of the Eaton 122 intercooler?

OK, I will jump in here.

In other words, we now realize that centrifugal suck and we are going to try and sell a positive displacement blower. Funny that the worlds BIGGEST centrifugal company would adopt technology that was beneath them 1 year ago. Call it what you will....I call it a last grab for the rail before the noose tightens.

I like how the guy said gm transmissions were capable of holding up to more power

Looks good, they are smart for doing so, the market for them is huge

Looks like they took a KB or whipple and put there name on it. Even same sizes 2.3 and 3.3L. Did he say GM puts in the heavy trans that will handle it????? ha thats funny. Non the less its nice to see another option out there.

I wonder how the TVS compares to this unit in effecincy and power output capability?

Too bad they did not make it in a 3.3 version. That would be sick.

They do suck:
suck in a **** load of air, make a lot of power and have way lower IAT's than yours
