Air entering the front of the blower case from the throttle-body and air inlet is compressed horizontally along the screw-like rotors of the supercharger that squeeze it into the outlet at the opposite end of the case, hence its designation as a screw-type blower. This design is more thermally efficient than the Roots design used on the Cobra and Lightning, which compresses the air around the outside path of the rotating rotor lobes.


Exactly!! Some Good info there...:thumbsup:

When you make it to the Nurburgring make sure you move to the right when the Carrera GT flys by. :D

Wonderful, when you pick up your Carrera GT, feel free to make some videos for us. :jerkoff:

Nice pics!! Thanks......so how did it feel to sit in that thing? Do you know the owner, or was he simply letting people line up just to sit in it?

Nope, it's just regular old Ford..

Isnt that pre-production titanium with dark stripes the same exact car that was shown wrecked on another thread? I do not believe they made more then one in that color combo(you can not order one like that).:shrug:

EDIT: damn now that the pic is gone i cant remember if that one WAS silver with light stripes or silver with black ones :bash:

No. The silver with black stripes is an option, and it is the same color combo as the one someone took for a spin in the mud.

The trilogy car was originally red(?) i think and saleen repainted it at the troy facility with the silver stripes for the show.
