Isnt the Radix blower ever so slightly BETTER then the one used on the L? If you take away the 150 shot of nitrous that Ford put down 650 Eaton powered HP.

The blower as a whole is better. The RADIX is very similar to the ported Eaton on the L, but still a little more effecient.

700-150=550 Nitrous also will add more than the advertised shot on a blown motor.

The Radix is definately a very nice setup though. I still say they need a bigger blower though....sorry Brian.

I'd like to see the 5500 - 6500 rpm #'s, Looks like it can handle that easy based on his build out.

That Radix is a real nice design, they took the efficiancy of the standard roots and bumped it to the next level. good for us!
