>>"to be honest the reason for considering a lysholm is so that you don't run out of revs at a piddly 7000 or 7500rpm.... "

in that case, turbos got u covered.... or shift

I was under the impression, this was closer to what you're after... only more intense than 'normal'
|
what do you mean 'turbo's have me covered'? it is a common misconception (due to roots style blowers) that you can't run high rpm with an SC. the smaller lysholm blowers can turn over 20,000rpm, and the ones i'm looking at turn 15,000rpm (but about 3000rpm more than i'd need)
turbos are ok, but they have their limitations, and for me, they are too limiting.
all i want is 300Nm in a car under 800kg.. is that too much to ask?

yeah ill agree the charger gives a great and very predictable feel. just having boost as soon as you stab the loud pedal is nice.
perhaps you would be better off looking for an ex facotry unit.. perhaps one of the merc ones ? not sure if they are roots though ?
|
exactly, i want big engine performance out of something legal to fit into my car, whilst not having a turbo 
the only factory ones i can think of are on the merc AMG65 thingy, or the mazda millenia?
i see no reason not to get a brand spanker that is perfectly sized, along with a range of pulleys to suit my taste
cost is really not that bad... for a whipple 1600AR, US$1640
http://www.whipplesuperchargers.com/product.asp?Pr odID=1162 similar price to a new turbo.
