I agree, I am incredibly interested in the kraftwerksusa JRSC setup.... the numbers on the s2k are really nice, and the numbers for the fit are o.k. With the flash pro possibly working for the 09 and up, the rotrex units seems very doable.

If you have the rotrex, on which engine/chassis.

Do you have other supercharging experience in whence to compare this to?

What is response like?

How high can the boost be set to?

BOV needed?

I have the Rotrex in the EP. Boost can't really be set. It is determined by flow and the impeller speed. Right now I see the max boost of 15 psi at about 7000 rpm. There is no whine like the roots blower. Nor does it have that instant kick. Its also different from a turbo. There is no lag and that sudden boost of power. The rotrex just pulls as you go higher in the rev range. If it wasn't for the max impeller speed. It would go higher. But with the advent of a two speed system. Its unlike any other. Basically. You step on a gas and the power increases from low to high rpm. No traction problems. And no boost creep to deal with. Also no tapping into the oil pan.

First of all it doesn't have three lobe vtec. Secondly it doesn't flow as good as the tsx head. Its a downgrade.
