hey grey..were you on mack bayou rd 2 weeks ago, maybe on a wed or thurs???

 

[GodStang]

There was a show on Speed Channel about that. About all I have heard on it so far.

 

[grey trmn8r]

I'm thinking it could be a cheap alternative.

I wish there was more about it.

Here's a couple links to whet your appetite. Sorry for not being a Ford, but they do involve the Eaton TVS Supercharger:

Link 1: Truck with Eaton TVS Prototype

Link 2: Same truck doing launches

If you compare the efficiency maps to other blowers, these are highly efficient blowers and have the capability to move alot of air. One thing to note is the upper RPM limit of the TVS units which can be spun nearly twice as fast as other positive displacement type blowers.

Yeah The TVS stuff will definately be talked about alot in the near future..

Interesting..........

 

[grey trmn8r]

Any guesses on price. I cant wait for a release date.

 

[Blown2300]

Yeah i guess we'll all have to wait and see!

The vids of that truck rock!

Physical dimensions of the TVS blowers and the M112 are different. The TVS has several different sizes but nothing that is a match to the M112.

It doesn't seem to whine much.

Ford is working on an aluminum block for the terminator... Hey, Eaton, NUDGE, NUDGE, how about your own twin-screw blower to replace an M112?

Yeah, theres not a direct size match.. I.e. you cant just swap rotors..

but the 1900 = 1.9L

and the M112 = 1.85L

From the sound of it.. the TVS is better than the screws that eaton makes..

I was talking to the owner of the truck the other day. He said the truck 60-foots between 1.5-1.6 seconds at a verified 5000 lbs! Truck has a stock shortblock and the blower kit is just a Magnuson intake and intercooler with the prototype Eaton TVS blower.

He hasn't had it on a chassis dyno since it's all-wheel drive, but judging by the performance, weight, airflow and ETs it's estimated to be around 700HP from only 8-lbs of boost.
