That was on a stock motor. They were also only spinning the blower about half what your G-Trim was spinning.

I have seen guys pick up 150hp+ with switching from the G to a T trim with only a few pound increase.

That Vette would make around 840 RWHP with a 2.62" pulley on it.

The G-trim is rated at a max 600hp and the T-trim is rated at 825. Figure they are a bit conservative and you can see the difference. T-trim = Bigger air opening, air outlet, max cfm is 1200 vs 875 for the G.

Yes, the T-Trim is bigger and will not fit in the same bracket as the G-Trim. Noticably bigger? Maybe a little. You can get dimensions from Vortech's website.

I have seen several guys switch to the RMCR T-Trim and pick up 100 rwhp. At the same boost level.

The T-Trim is 400 cfm larger and does not have to be spun as hard making it able to produce more power and less heat. Also the supercharger comes on way stronger at the low end.
