Does anyone make...
...a "ROOTS" type SC? I know Stillen is a "screw" type, and Vortech and Procharger are centrifugal type, but does anyone make a Roots type?
They are used on GM "Ecotech" motors.

Turbotom - where do you see that I read the info off of Stillen.com also and it says for the 350z kit that it is a twin-screw type.

Pretty sure screw types are more efficient. And how and where the air compression takes place?
Scew types look more like 2 screws sitting next to each other, as they spin the force air backwards and compress it. The roots works basically the same but the tolerances aren't as great and they only have like 3 or 4 lobes as compared to the screw type having double that. Roots will stack the air in bigger "gobbs".
