[QUOTE="LS2GTO, post: 14597271, member: 73731"] They used a small blower simply because it was enough to meet their target power goals from the factory. Frankly, GM could care less about the "potential" of the engine (or lackthereof) and all they need is a reliable unit to make the power they marketed to its customers. They don't care that the engine needs a new blower to make 700+hp. They also said the smaller blower was more responsive and quicker to build boost so that helped with driving experience. It's bad news for us as enthusiasts because it takes a blower swap to make big power it seems, but to GM it's a smart move. Cheaper parts to begin with and they could offer a 2.3 upgrade of their on that they could themselves sell to those who wish to have more power. WIN/WIN in my book if I was a GM executive. [/QUOTE]
