Magnuson Heartbeat Supercharger at SEMA Not sure if this is a viable alternative to the stock blower, but it will be available for the V2 as well as Chevrolet Corvette (C6), Camaro (2010+), and the Pontiac G8. I'm guessing not a huge improvement over the potential of the 1.9L or larger displacement alternative. Cool design though.

I don't know what design engineer Dan Bronsten meant to say, but Formula1 engines have been N/A for years, so there aren't any intercoolers (let alone special dual-pass intercoolers) in F1.
The design does look cool, particularly in the wrinkle black finish.

The TVS series blowers make very good power. The Eforce has a longer runner so that helps low end but with a roots, low end power really isn't an issue anyway. I didn't really read the article, the HB blowers TVS series or something newer?

The pressure drop accross the Laminovas at high-volume high-velocity precludes them from being ideal in this application.
I am not convinced the differing length runners for the rear cylinders in the Eforce is ideal.
