centrifugal. Doesn't sound like a screw type.

yes
but which one..
procharger, vortech, vf..

definately not a roots, its a centri. but theres no way of really knowing if its a vortech or procharger, theres nothing to really give it away. If I had to guess, Id say procharger. Seems more common for our cars

I would go with Vortech. Hardcore What do you think?

Would be nice to find an engine pic of this thing...much easier to tell if its a Vortech or Procharger (just by looking at the blower case).

that is why i m asking here if someone can distinguish by hearing it..
that was only video i could find..

heard bad thing about vortech that it keeps break belt tensioner, belt slips, no power until 3k rpm like turbo, is it true or just misused by user??
