The weight savings seems great. The noise reduction sounds like a step in the wrong direction but that probably has to do with making a more efficient gear design. Most of my clients are bummed that their helical cut gear Vortech (V2 and newer) are not louder. The V1 straight cut gear units added more to the experience. Do you know if these ESS chargers are being made available to purchase by themselves? |

I've never heard of anyone wanting a "louder" noise from a centrifugal supercharger - only those wanting quieter. G-Series superchargers are available separately, but need the G-specific mounting brackets and other hardware if upgrading from a vortech-based kit.

The last 3 installs I have done, the first thing they comment on is the lack of noise. The HKS I just pulled off a friend's 01 M3 was insanely fun just because of the sound it made (and the dual vent to atmosphere bypass valves). That's no problem on the mounting. I want another option for a kit I'm designing. I'll send you a PM now on pricing. Last edited by Braymond141; 03-25-2020 at 04:16 PM.. |
