Default Supercharged ISF

I know this is probably old and I dont know whatever became of it, but I'm sure this was before we had any ability to tune the F, may be worth a re visit ( just wonder why RR decided not to use this type of blower) seems all the OEM's go this route, maybe more reliable or easy to package?

Lol..................I guess Splat never PM'd you about updates?? Last post 5/25/11

Looked like an ambitious project back in the day when the ECU was not cracked and trying to get this to run with a piggyback system seemed like a nightmare!

I think the centrifugal S/C is more efficient than either the roots type or twin screw and will give most of it's power at the upper rpm ranges when it spools more or less... But soon I think people will find out because I think the RR S/C will be going live at the end of August

I don't remember reading that thread back then but man, what a wast of time that was! It makes me wonder what happened to that car. Did it get converted back to N/A, is it sitting in a garage or is someone driving it with that S/C on it. If it's option 2 or 3 then now would be a good time to get the bugs worked out to see how well that setup would work with real tuning .
