There just isn't much about Rotrexes yet, it's not about anything other than it's a Rotrex. And even though it isn't piped yet, I still think it is funny that it sounds exactly like a teapot.

so basically you can run a 1:1 ratio and then it shifts 1.5:1 or 2:1 as you pick up rpms?

I have seen the rotrex on a reg cab silverado. A2w intercooled, I think he is running 12's with traction problems and launching problems.

W2W has a nice (now carb legal) kit.

There was just talk about the head unit not being big enough to go over 600hp, it was over @ tech...its like a belt drive turbo.

Or maybe it starts out in high so that it gives boost right now, instead of centrifugal or turbo-type boost. Then downshifts at higher Rs to keep boost linear?
