First Report of the Techco Twinscrew Blower

[dntnvme]

Today makes a complete week I have had the ride back, 300 plus miles and no turning back.. First major test, I filled up yesterday morning and drove 40 plus miles one way to work. Then I drove home and off to Inglewood. Total was 87 miles and I still had more than 3/4 of a tank a gas.. This was with a little playing here and there.

This morning I had to go to downtown LA for a traffic ticket and then to work, with minor traffic and another round trip I have completed 175.4 miles and I have a half a tank of gas left... This was with averaging speeds of 75 to 80 MPH.. Sometimes reaching tripple digits to get away from traffic..

I thought I had a tuning issue which turned out to be the ESP holding the car back.. After discussing this with Billy and John they advised me to turn off the ESP and let them know if that solved the problem... Well lo and behold, that was the problem.. The car feels much lighter and the exceleration is even better than what I dreamed of..

Stay tune as this thread continues with more write up details and track times from me putting the Techco Twinscrew to the test..

Much props again to the Techco Staff for an awesome product...

Let me know what you think...

[Sal SRT-8]

Man, that is awesome!! I have a request, can we get some sound clips from the inside under WOT? I would like to know how it sounds. I have heard the sound clips with the hood open and also when the blower was on the bench but i want to know how it sounds when you get on it? :)

Paulie, thanks for the quick drive... That baby launches like an animal... I am sorry I didn't get to return the ride but the police was just to hot out there last night...

[mnunes]

Jay, I must say that it looks even better in person. Very clean, like it came from the factory that way. Sweet!

[LoneStar]

Love the look. It has got to be the cleanest blower install I have seen.

Jay, it feels like your on ice to me with the ESP off!!! It's awesome isn't it.

[Sal SRT-8]

Did you ever get anymore sound clips?

[best3175]

I think I got aroused by this thread.

[dntnvme]

Not just yet guys, no additional sounds clips yet... I have been buried with work and have had no time to play.. As soon as I get a break I will add a new clip.. Thanks for the comments and the props all of you...

[GLHS837]

I think I got aroused by this thread.

And personally, I think I speak for all of us when I say we never need to know your personal state of arousal, ever again:slap:

:D

[dntnvme]

Did I miss something? I don't see a blower on any of your pics..

[GLHS837]

Here it is. Where the intake manifold usually is, those black tubes heading down ae the runners leading to each cylinder. That silver faceplate is covering up the air/water intercoolers, while the blower itself actually sits down under that. If you look a little left of center, you'll see a black tube coing out from under there, and a pulley on the end. Thats the drive shaft for the blower.
