More info for you Richard. Please note that the "oil out" channel is actually discharge temps. What you have to remember: This is proving the Screw companies past claims of 80-100* less in discharge temps.

Hmmm... so much for Whipple's claim that their "superior" twin-screw design does not need an intercooler. Thanks for the information, Brian. This is invaluable.

for some reason these kinds of graphs are always easier for me to comprehend, damn good data, and quite honestly, I am surprised the lysholm ran so hot.

any plans for an autorotor?

I like the fact that 10 lbs of whipple boost and 10 lb of Magna Charger boost produce identical HP and torque numbers at 6400 rpm and the Magna Charger is a 2.0 and the whipple is a 2.3. even the difference in heat did not seem to affect the numbers. I also know this would be a whole different ball game on a 427 with 15 lbs of boost but for a every day street vehicle on pump gas and 10 lbs of boost or less the Magna Charger really shines

that new 122 is an efficient bastard! you Magnuson boys sure know how to keep a guy broke

BTW Dummy, thanks for all your hard work, as always you are a huge part of what gets done around there, sort of the man behind the scenes

Thats good information. Its telling me that over 6lbs I need to put on that intercooler ASAP. Any chance you will test the Autorotor soon.

This test was preformed to prove or disprove the claims of lower discharge temps.
I'd say it proves that this blower is the exception to the rule rather than disproving claims of lower air charge temps. Those claims are certainly valid for other roots-type blowers. These are supposed to be hybrid Gen V/VI blowers right? I remember reading that the full Gen VI should show as much improvement again.

It was in an article about the Shelby GT500 powertrain and had a detail about the Eaton R122H. Basically went over how much it was an improvement over the previous design. It did particularly mention that it was a hybrid between the current and an upcoming design. There is nothing about this on the internet that I have found yet. I have the article and I'll scan it if I can find it.

Yeah, I read that one too, unfortunetly not much hard data has been released just yet. I'm actually kinda surprised no one has figured it out, but in any case it will be nothing but "good stuff" for us end users
