You need to get baffled healights. The force from the extra HP may force the fluid toward the back of the housing during acceleration resulting in a loss of fluid out the bulb socket.

By the way there are also down sides to the "other" S/C design as well. So I was just trying to give some info, not taking sides lol, before someone jumps on me for being a bandwagoner.....

My point is that given the pulley and compressor size differences between the Vortech blower and the Rotrex of the two competing kits, the torque curve differential is explanable by the amount of CFM moved at lower RPM ranges by each. Again, no one from Stillen has responded stating that I am incorrect. That said, I am still waiting for Stillen to respond to the PSI levels and why it's so important to keep them from the masses until a "Press Release." This is a bit confusing. I am also waiting for a response on whether or not Vortech has ever released a kit running 10psi or better that was CARB legal. (I already know the answer to this one) |

To be honest, I have absolutely no idea how much boost Vortech has used in some of their previous kits. That would be a question for Vortech. Keep in mind this is not a Vortech kit...This is a Stillen kit utilizing a Vortech compressor. All of the engineering, testing, and development has been done by Stillen. |

No magic number, no sale. Every Stillen S/C should include a magic # in the box!

FAIL lol. He can still get you with decimal points, now he can answer with between 7.1 & 8.9.
