While a centrifugal blower will work well on this motor, you just can't beat a properly sized roots SC for a nice flat torque curve and nigh-instant boost

A roots blower's one weakeness is top end potential (here the centrifugal will win the day) -- of course, for that you just match it to a big turbo for twin-charged madness

Without a doubt, if a roots blower kit is developed, it will eventually find its way onto my car

For reference...
