Id have to dig around. I know there are lots of centri GT350s Procharged, Vortech/Paxton.

But yes I was talking about an Edlebrock 2650 TVS Kit on a GT350 the low end grunt would be badass.

does it matter? A supercharger is a supercharger. Do any of these companies actually produce (ie own the engineering R&D and production) or are they just slapping their name plate on an OEM part? Me thinks the latter.

Screw type blower is on boost quicker than a centri

I suggest you google......

There are 3 types of belt driven superchargers.

Roots. TwinScrew. and Centrifugal.

What piston ring issue?

My bad - Not an issue, my apologies. More of a matter of mediocre engineering. I still have the Ls7 valve dropping issues still freshly seared into my consciousness.

I’d rather have something be well engineered enough to be able to push its limits safely and deal with any minor annoyances like ticking sounds or having to put oil in it every couple of weeks.

 

[shogun32]

I was imprecise with my language. A supercharger that fits in the V is the distinction that matters. If one kind of rotor shape has been done, it's trivial for the other kind to also be done.

 

[Notagain]

Point is A Does not Equal B.

Assuming they are the same is wrong.

Name calling ? What are you 5, 6 years old ?

Please - DONT take my GO FAST advice. God forbid your ever able to taste 11’s LOL

I am so sick and tired of these bbq tick, voodoo, etc trolls and you other jerks encouraging it . This a Ford Mustang forum. Not a corvette forum. If you are gonna troll mustangs/ Ford - you’re gonna get it right back.

Ps I’m not a member of any LS / Mopar forums.


Fred

In the time he has been here Martin has offered valuable information and has shared insider knowledge on a lot of different subjects. He is very well respected here and even the most hardcore Mustang guys on here value what he brings to the table. He has proven himself since he joined over a year ago. You on the other hand, within 16 posts here you resorted to name calling because someone presented information that you did not like. Then you again tried to insult him in a back-handed condescending manner. My point is, it could be the middle of the day and you could tell me the sun was out and Martin could tell me it was night time and I'd take his word over yours without hesitation. Why? Because people like yourself are the real ones trolling these boards. You hear irrefutable logic and instead of finding a way to discuss it with intellect you start calling names. That my friend is a sign of low intelligence. That shows which 2 of those 2 names you actually are. That is about as much attention as I'll give to you until you start talking like an adult.


LOL, a few years ago I posted information from both of those sources (JD Power and Consumer Reports) and it got laughed at. Now you're saying you consider them to be the only reliable source. Shame. But really, where does CR get their info from? It is from us consumers. So why do you need it in a report when you have lots of posts on this forum showing you what owners go thru? When most people want information on their car or which Mustang to buy or whether they should mod it or when they have problems they come here and ask or post it. So how is it that all of a sudden the widest base of knowledge on the entire internet for these cars is suddenly invalid?

If this was c6g they would have been banned long ago but the powers that be well...…………...

That too.

A few years ago I had emergency open heart surgery, dead on the table and in coma for about a week. When I woke up the first thing I asked the surgeon was when can I see my dogs and the second question was when can I drive my cars again. ( my wife and kids were there ) He laughed and said nobody ever asked him that as their first questions. Then he said I have a couple black labs and an R8 so I get it. Point is no matter what is going on around me my dogs just make me smile period and my cars make me feel like I am that 9 year old kid again helping my dad work on his 65 fastback. OK I just teared up. Wow I have way too much free time today.

So back to the purpose of this thread GT350 bad........C8 good

GT350 good.....C8 better. Fight me.

The mid engine is the real selling factor for the C8, people are even ok having that car in manual. Regarding the advantage of the DCT, it shifts in 0.008 seconds vs 10 speed 0.150 seconds. Regular auto’s shift in .250 second range and a manual transmission is 0.5 seconds. So if you do the math, with DCT the car is shaving .142 seconds in each shift vs 10 speed auto. Compared to a manual thats even eternity.
