What?s the performance difference of the twin screw compressor and Centrifugal superchargers?
A. The major difference between the positive displacement twin screw supercharger and today?s centrifugal superchargers is the rate of boost. The Lysholm compressor creates boost the instant the throttle is touched usually reaching full boost by 2000 to 2400 rpm. The centrifugal supercharger is a belt driven turbo that has a lag time while it “spools up.” The centrifugal commonly does not come into boost until 2600 to 3000 rpm and they commonly do not reach full boost until max rpm The instant boost of a twin screw compressor gives you far better throttle response whenever you call upon it, far greater acceleration, and incredible drive-ability. They are designed for easy bolt-on installations to stock motors while offering the ability to adapt to modified engines if needed.
