"The Eaton supercharger is essentially a Roots blower pump, with one substantial design wrinkle; each rotor has been twisted 60 degrees to form a helix. The two counter rotating rotors have three lobes, which intermesh during operation. These twisted rotors, along with specially designed inlet and outlet port geometry, help to reduce pressure variations resulting in a smooth discharge of air and a low level of noise during operation. This arrangement also improves efficiency over traditional Roots superchargers. With helical rotors and an axial inlet the Eaton supercharger can be spun to up to 14,000 rpm, thereby reducing package size. "

This is off of the Jackson website.

It raises the air pressure, obviously its not the air compressor you have in your garage, but you got the general idea. I was in a hurry.

Yeah, your car looks very nice with that turbo under the hood. I would love to turbo my SS, but I dont think she'd (my tranny even though its already been Level 10'd) handle 10psi. So instead I'm going for the JRSC and less boost. It will be slower, but it'll still be faster than most cars on the road.

Thank you. Complete engine control with the SC can be very helpfull, but money is the limiting factor since you have the trannie upgrade.

Turbocharge ....

What did you do to your SS trany from level 10. I wanna look into building up my tranny cause its starting to slip and jerk while i'm driving. So i figure if i go SC route. I will need to Level 10 That bad boy. Let me know what you did and about how much it cost. Also where did you do the install.
