It's a screw blower (true compressor, not savage) so it will put a lot more air than a 8.71 And they way this thing is driven internally, I don't have to "spin it" near as high as other blowers. It's very hot at the dunes, and cars run around WFO for hours at a time, so this will be a big plus for reliability. The 3.3L blowers would get so freakin' hot that touching the case would burn you... But I was driving then (the blowers) between 16,000 & 18,000 RPM so that had something to do with it... With this, I can turn it slower, make more power and not heat up the air/water intercooler so fast... On paper everything looks good. But "the real world" will be the "true" test.
