[QUOTE="Hellion94, post: 382302, member: 8471"] Again "Roots Style" Is the same thing as saying "Blower" or something that covers a very broad range of several different things. Roots Style is just a term that people give positive displacement superchargers because the first ones were "Roots" superchargers, so anything that resembles a Roots blower will most likely be called a "Roots style" The only thing that's similar about the two is that they sit on top of the engine, and stuff spins inside them to create boost. There is no middle ground - Roots Style is just a saying, and not a technical term - much like the term "blower" can cover Roots, Twin Screw, or Centrifugal superchargers, even though they are all different. :) [/QUOTE]
