Vortech Engineering
has announced the availability of the Lysholm design VTS Series superchargers
featuring Twin-Screw technology. Through an agreement with Lysholm Technologies
AB, Stockholm, Sweden, Vortech will distribute automotive systems and
tuner kits in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Vortech becomes the
only aftermarket manufacturer to offer both centrifugal and twin-screw
superchargers.
The patented,
VTS twin-screw design provides tire shredding low-end torque as well as
far greater efficiency and horsepower gains compared to traditional (and
newer) roots-type blowers. Boost levels over 20 PSIG are possible.
Initial vehicle
applications include late model GM trucks and SUV's with LS-type V8 motors
plus Tuner Kits (without calibration/fuel management) for LS-based Street
Rods in 2.3L and 3.3L compressor sizing providing a 40-50%+ increase in
power.
Features
include a plenum design with increased volume that allows for an unrestricted
flow to the intake port plus an oversized dual pass air/water charge cooler
(50% more area) for a lower discharge temperature. The manifold provides
for upgrading to the larger 3.3L compressor.
Integrated
bypass valve and fuel rail mount positions are provided. Calibration is
accomplished through the DiabloSport Predator hand-held programmer that
controls ignition timing and fuel enrichment.
