Radix has a smaller compressor than the Whipple does and the Radix is intercooled. Whipple is also a twin screw setup vs the Radix is a modified roots style.
If I had my choice it'd be a Radix setup with a big Whipple compressor...I think it's made by Lyshome (sp?). Intercooled, big injectors, etc.

Whipple sells longer blower drive snouts so something like the current RADIX drive setup could probably be made.

That's a lot of cash for a blower, but it is badass!
