Question

Shiv,

I guess that's why you see the Honda Si in the latest SCC, even with it's high rpm range, still wasn't able to utilize the power potential of the Vortech supercharger since it builds peak power so high. It seemed like that Vortech kit wasn't running out of steam anytime soon.

I guess the good thing about the Vortech kit is that just like a bigger turbo, since it's not running at it's peak efficiency, it doesn't generate as much heat. This would be ideal for a non-intercooled Vortech running at low psi, right? I thought the power delivery of the Vortech on that Si was awesome, even though you could say it wasn't all being used very well.
