[QUOTE="Nathan'sTsi, post: 12106530, member: 14187"] Yah... OEM reliabilty that is going to nuke the bearings in short order from over spining it. If you run a 2.4" upper and OD lower pulley and think the TVS is going tolast forever you are kidding yourself. Hopw many TVS car do you see cracking 140+ traps and 9 second ETs? I didn't say a TVS car can't ber fast, just that a twin screw car can be very well be faster. There are lots of guys who do track their cars though, and many that utuilize race gas. In those instances the twin screw is vastly superior. Take BJ's car for example. His car is set up well and moves out. It did with the stock blower as well. If he bolted on a twin screw and came out on kill, his car would be MUCH faster. Not everyone uses their car like that, but for the people that do, the bigger twin screw is the way to go. For a mostly street car, the bigger blower is just bragging rights. On regular rubber neither one is going to hook up anyways. For the guy that is going to swap on some stickeies and hit up the local spots, he could very well fit into the first category. For the guy rolling around on R compounds all of the time, the TVS will be plenty of fun. That is how I see it anyways. [/QUOTE]
