I did but i didn't like the number especially since there's no upgrade path, they should drop at least 2K from the advertised price.
I mean at this price they could have used an air to air setup with a ROTREX C38-91 and it would have cost them the same to make with good margin of profit |

I thought the 345 advertised by Gpower on their website was tq (not on the wheels)
But if that's what you're saying, this means that G power is some nasty kit. What's an ESS-vt2 500 tq like? crank |

finally got the picture but unfortunately lost the one with 345 ft lb. It's still one of the best Dyno runs i made.

That dyno looks odd for an S54. Why not run it to 8k rpm?

See pokey? my friend has an ASA and much more boost than ironZ4M and produces 350 TQ on 3K.
That's how ASA - ROTREX - HKS delivers power. Different than V3si on S54. you pawnt my ass on centrifugal power on S54, yet what i was saying was that some superchargers develop high boost at low RPM and holds on to it. |

If you lower the compression, off-boost performance suffers (meaning low rpm in a centrifugal setup). The only way to have that much torque on an S54 is with a turbo or nitrous. All centrifugal blowers aren't identical, but they behave very similarly. They all have two things in common - the rpm of the engine determines the rpm of the blower, and the higher the rpm the greater the boost. There is no other way to put it.
