That is the New TVS supercharger, the same 2.3L unit that is being used on the ZR1. So I wonder if this is the beginning of what is to come for the LS9?

And for some reason that just doesn't look like an LSX block...Maybe because it is not ORANGE!?!?! That really looks like an aluminum block, weird?

theres a few threads of the orange color peeling off as it just painted, even in the coolant passages. maybe this guy took an extra step and stripped the whole block of that paint

Better than the old Eaton roots style.. yes


Better than the TVS... NOPE!

Thats the whole point, some of the screw guys are using bigger blowers to make this same power...

I'd like to have 950 hp , it's a 434 cid, I'd love to have one for my street car, 850+tq at only 2,500 rpm, you can run stock stall and gears with that rpm range

The Magnacharger place and Duttiweler are both close to my house, I've seen a lot of cool stuff come out of Duttweiler's shop, if he puts his name on something you can bet it's going to perform.

He's a cool guy, gave me some free stuff for my 1st race car, too bad about Germanson he was a cool guy I met him at his chassis dyno shop in Oxnard, he just died

The TVS still is an air mover, not a compressor like a Whipple or KB. It's advanced in design but can't hit the efficiencies of an internal compression screw unit. Check the maps at Eaton.com.
