VF was pushing a considerable amount of more boost. Here's a comparison of the last run with the VF570 and the ESSVT2-525:



As a matter of fact, the ESS VT2-525 system costs less than the VF570.

There were some issues that were still present in part-throttle as well as limp modes upon deceleration in the VF software, those may have been worked out by now as we've were running the VF570 system for a bit over 1 year.

We've since moved to the ESS system and can confidently say we now have experience with both supercharger systems for those looking to compare the systems and consult with us before making their ultimate choice.
