Vortech T - Trim?

I'm not up on all the trim variances. How is the T trim different from others? I searched and couldn't find anything. Thanks.

Wow you mean like go to the actual website?? Yes I went there and couldn't find anything on the V-2 T-Trim charger. If you can find it perhaps you can link it? Maybe I'm just blind.

Superchargers require power from the motor in order to create boost. This percentage is based on the the amount of power it takes to create boost. The higher the percentage, the more efficient the blower, and the less power from the motor itself it takes to make additional power.

The roots type blowers or horribly inefficient, which is why the Stillen roots type blowers produce less power than the vortech systems, even at the same psi.

That's what i thought too, but if you look at some T-trim blower, it says V2 on it.

There's T trims but are meant for bigger motors like the cobras but can be custom upgraded by vortech for any car at an additional price of 1500

I thought it will cost around 700~800 for upgrade.
