Vortech Engineering has announced the availability of the Lysholm design VTS Series superchargers featuring Twin-Screw technology. Through an agreement with Lysholm Technologies AB, Stockholm, Sweden, Vortech will distribute automotive systems and tuner kits in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Vortech becomes the only aftermarket manufacturer to offer both centrifugal and twin-screw superchargers.
The patented, VTS twin-screw design provides tire shredding low-end torque as well as far greater efficiency and horsepower gains compared to traditional (and newer) roots-type blowers. Boost levels over 20 PSIG are possible.
Initial vehicle applications include late model GM trucks and SUV's with LS-type V8 motors plus Tuner Kits (without calibration/fuel management) for LS-based Street Rods in 2.3L and 3.3L compressor sizing providing a 40-50%+ increase in power.
