Supercharger Performance and Engine Performance Parts

Vortec performance has always been a leader in product innovation in supercharger performance applications. I believe Vortech was the first American Centrifugal supercharger manufacturere to dive into the import performance arena and realise the trend of the age of performance enthusiasts shfting to a younger generation and shifting to a smaller displacement market such as Toyotas and Hondas.

The beauty of the smaller displacement, high rpm, market is that it is in dire need of supercharger performance to leverage the shortcomings of the small displacement motors, furthermore, because of the high rpm nature of these motors and the typically short gearing required for their optimium performance in stock trim, the centrifugal application creates a perfectly matched solution gives more and more power as rpms’s rise because of the non-linear nature of the centrifugal supercharger’s boost curve. This more is more phenomenon (more rpm gives more boost gives more power gives more top end) is great both maintaining traction on short geared cars, and is perfect on cars with a wide rpm range where you can tap into more of the available boost at higher rpms while still keeping your lower rev range fairly sane and fuel effecient with lower boost figures.

With that opportunity Vortech provided a hard hitting application with their Vortech V-5 F and G-Trim compressors for the honda B16, B18, B20 motors and onwards into this century with the applikation for the S2000 K20 and K22 motors. 

Here’s an example of a B20 2.0 liter coupled with a vortech supercharger showing the ramping up power and torque curves which is a stellar example of what centrifugal superchargers can do on small displacement high rpm motors:
