Thread: Gen III or Gen V?

The blower case is machined to fit all the way around the rotors where the Gen lll leaves a gap of free space at the bottom center. You will GAIN boost over the Gen lll even if you run the same size pulley.

Ok...I'd like see how some of these things stack up.

The best ported Gen III vs. a stock Gen V...20 horsepower? Get real. I doubt that much. And last I checked if you have a 3.8" pulley it is going to make the same amount of boost on a Gen III vs. a Gen V...only thing that will make the difference is flow mods.

i see what your saying but if a gen V is moving more air with the same amount of rotor rotation in the case...due to the design of the case itself wouldnt it therefore make more boost? i know you can port a gen III real good but only to a certain point correct? lemme know if im wrong thats just how i see it....

and i think you are correct about 20+ hp from this i dont think the new gtp's make 20 more horses off that blower its the blower plus a high compression motor....
