Want to know more about boost applications

Root Style

How They Work

Roots and twin-screw blowers are positive-displacement superchargers, meaning they move a fixed volume of air per revolution. Boost is available almost immediately, regardless of RPM.

Power Delivery

  • Instant boost
  • Massive low-end and mid-range torque
  • Feels aggressive and linear
  • Excellent throttle response

Pros

✅ Immediate power (no lag)

✅ Excellent street manners

✅ Strong low-RPM torque (great for heavy cars)

✅ Predictable, consistent boost

✅ Easier tuning for drivability

Cons

❌ Higher parasitic loss (belt-driven)

❌ Generates more heat than centrifugal units

❌ Can be less efficient at very high RPM

❌ Usually higher initial cost

Best For

  • Street performance builds
  • Daily-drivers
  • Roll racing and stoplight pulls
  • Drivers who want instant power everywhere

Centrifugal

How They Work

Centrifugal superchargers operate like a belt-driven turbo. Boost increases with RPM, meaning power builds progressively as engine speed rises.

Power Delivery

  • Mild down low
  • Explosive top-end
  • Turbo-like surge at high RPM

Pros

✅ Very efficient airflow

✅ Cooler intake temps

✅ Strong peak horsepower

✅ Lower engine stress at low RPM

✅ Excellent for racing applications

Cons

❌ Less low-end torque

❌ Boost dependent on RPM

❌ Can feel “soft” in daily driving

❌ Requires revs to shine

Best For

  • Track and road-course builds
  • High-RPM engines
  • Cars chasing big dyno numbers
  • Drivers who live above 4,000 RPM

Turbo

How They Work

Turbos use exhaust energy to spin a turbine that compresses intake air. No belt—boost is driven by exhaust flow and controlled with wastegates.

Power Delivery

  • Depends on turbo size and setup
  • Can be smooth or violent
  • Adjustable boost levels
  • Most scalable power potential

Pros

✅ Highest horsepower potential

✅ No parasitic loss

✅ Extremely efficient at high power levels

✅ Boost can be adjusted electronically

✅ Best power-per-dollar at high HP

Cons

❌ Turbo lag (varies by setup)

❌ Most complex installation

❌ More heat management required

❌ Higher tuning and maintenance demands

Best For

  • High-horsepower builds
  • Drag racing
  • Power addicts chasing 800–1,500+ HP
  • Drivers comfortable with complexity
