The Vortech and any other type of centrifugal supercharger isn't a good idea on our motors. The powerband will be so peaky and narrow, as well as having the worst of both worlds: parasitic losses and lag.

The numbers coming out of the centrifugal supercharged motors are nice, but when you see how peaky the curves are, it really doesn't make sense for a daily driver that sees little in the upper RPMs.
