My point exactly. You sit there with your little graphs and come to your conclusions with your specs while some people actually go out and try this stuff. Can we say magazine racer? We did 2 second gear rolls letting off a little over 100, and a 3rd gear roll all the way up to almost 150mph. The "no power up top" Eaton did much better up top than down low. Before we raced, we thought for sure the Eaton would be sick down low and suck up top, but thats just from listening to people like you. The exact opposite happened. I never mentioned a word about the blowzilla, this has nothing to do with that, we are talking about the Eaton. Do you think you can stay on topic? From your quote, it is apparent to me you haven't driven a twin screw car. What you think is top end 'pulling' with a roots doesn't compare to the top end on a twin screw'd car. My argument is backed up by Ford switching to a twin screw in the ford GT, and Saleen switching to the screw in 03. The problem is that the roots blowers aren't as thermally efficient, as well as a very different hylix type rotor. I've owned both and tuned several. Still don't believe me? If I had taken you for a ride in my twin screw S281E, you would have been scared. The baseline you described above is in comparison to nothing. Now what you need to do is go for a ride in a 03-04 cobra with a twin screw blower vs. the Eaton roots and you'll understand. quote:

People like me have owned, driven, and tuned both types of positive displacment blowers. You need to listen to people like me more often. -And you think I'm a magazine racer? Do you realize what I do for a living? Let me try this again. This has nothing to do with any other blower. I am not comparing it with the twin screw. I know the twin screw is way better, thats a no brainer. It was stated that the Eaton is no good up top, but would be way better down low, and you agreed. We went out and raced, all conditions the same, except 2 races down low, and one up top, the Eaton performed way better up top. How about you explain that? And don't bring up any other blower, this is not a discussion about Eaton vs Twin screw. The test was the Eaton racing a car down low, then up top, all other conditions the same. The Eaton performed way better up top. Simple as that. The real life tests don't lie. No one ever listens do they?

She is a little hot headed and half of us dont even care what she has to say because its always leads to an insult on a Mustang. I remember she was all over me in the live chat room one day and I just said hello. LOL Isnt there a WS6 board out there???

I never have a problem with anyone until they make snide and rude comments, reap what you sow. Well, I'm glad someone said sorry for me... as you can see, I don't "pop off" until someone says something out of line, and I purposely jump all over them because they need to learn to keep their comments to themselves when the comment is unnecessary... I don't find my comment to 94Cobra quite as bad as what he said... 94Cobra was trying to be funny I guess and someone didn't find it very funny, they found it insulting, so they said something in defense of that other person, not a crime there. Anyways, back on topic...

I remember she was all over me in the live chat room one day and I just said hello. LOL Isnt there a WS6 board out there??? Hmm, thought we were past all that, and there was a perfectly good explanation for it... as you can see, I get asked a lot in other posts, "Where have you been?", I've been spending my time on a "ws6 forum", I just didn't want people to think that I thought I was too good for the forum now that I don't have a stang, so I try to stick around... Look JD, I have nothing against Mustangs... I'm opinionated, and thats ok... Just certain things tend to stick out on Stangs that I don't like, and vise versa with GM, I mean, I really don't like camaros, I think they are UGLY. Anyways, as I said above, back on topic...
