    Also keep in mind that those are 3 different types of superchargers that develop different torque curve shapes.

    RIPP - Centrifugal
    Sprintex - Twin Screw
    Magnuson - Roots


    Here's a general comparison of how torque curve shapes differ:




    "PD Blower" in that chart would be "Roots". Twin Screw is missing from that chart, but it is a compromise between Centrifugal and Roots.Twin Screw has some decent boost at lower rpm (but not as much as Roots), and increases boost through the rpm range.

    If Sprintex has higher peak boost than Magnuson, then it's most likely only in the higher rpm range.

    pickles, who are you voting for here?

    Sprintex is the black box of the group. No one really knows anything. Mags problems have been documented, but i think they are getting on track now with that thread about the tune getting corrected.
