[QUOTE="Coz, post: 16593481, member: 184704"] The installation cost on the centrifugal blowers may be a little less. Now if you do want to take it to road course tracks and be serious about it, I would recommend not adding a blower of any type. They tend to heat soak after 10-15 minutes. You can mitigate, but probably not eliminate, that by installing a larger intercooler, auxillary oil cooler, grille mods, hood vents etc. You can also take it easy on the track or cut your HPDE sessions short by 5-10 minutes. I'm not sure how it would work on autoX but I'm guessing if you have enough time between runs you'll be ok. You also have to remember that a the Gen 1 Coyotes don't have forged rods or pistons so you have to be cautious of how much power and how long it will be applied. If you do decide to go with a blower, a TVS type provides for more instantaneous torque while the centrifugal has a more gradual increase. A TVS type blower may result in more difficulty in maintaining traction when you're powering out of turns. Of course, this is also affected by your driving style, throttle response of your tune, tires, suspension mods, a rear diff (Traction-Lok vs Torsen). There's always tradeoffs. [/QUOTE]
