Different blower types for Vipers

[Homie]

I know there are centrifigul (spelling might be off) blowers for Vipers, but are there also roots and twin-screw types?

I guess in a Viper, with so much low end torque already, a centrifigul type makes the most sense. Or can one ever really have too much torque?

With a ceptrifigul you gain tons on the high-end and give up NONE on the low end (as long as you don't drop the compression ratio), correct?

Thanks!

One of the most popular chargers would be Sean Roe's from Roe Racing. It is not a centrafugal type blower. Do a search and you will see!

The Roe S/C is a KB twin screw unit. I don't know of any roots blowers being used on Vipers.

There are a ton of Paxton centrifugal blowers and a small handful of Vortech and Procharger kits installed (that I am aware of).

The problem with the ROE Racing setup is that it's not available on a Gen 3/4

either a paxton or turbos....or maybe Roe still has a prototype twin screw laying around.

I contacted Roe for a Gen 3 twin screw. The one he had was sold.

So he only built *ONE*? Why not build more? Seems the market would be very similar to (or bigger than) the Gen 2 market.

It's a long story but basically the blower won't fit under the Gen 3 hood.

LOL, that's nuts. He does know there are these things called aftermarket hoods, doesn't he?
