you need to drive a centrifugal blown car and you'll see the difference. Positive displacement blown cars are so much more fun to drive. If you are making a drag only car the F1 may be a good choice for some big peak numbers when you stay in the high rpms all the way down the track making a pass.
I had a Novi 2000 that made 708 RWHP and it felt like a 300 RWHP car until about 5,500 rpms then all the power rushed in at once straight to the rev limiter and no tires had a chance of holding traction when in 200-300 rpm increments 400 more RWHP came in all at once.
now the Novi 2000 was fun from about a 80 mph roll !!!!!!!!! OMG !!! I hurt a lot of motorcycles feelings real bad but it had no low end grunt like the Eaton, or TS blowers do. No little quick blips of the throttle ever impressed anyone I had to drive the shit out of the car in high rpms and at high speeds to impress anyone even myself with that set up.
But normal driving around town I was very disappointed. I fell in love with my car all over again when I ditched the Novi 2000 for a KB 2.2 and life was great after that !.....until I had to sell the car - damn ex-wife
