This is all I got out of the thread on the above posted link;

TALLBOY
"The delay in the release of the blower kit is due to some minor fitment issues. T1 has no wiper motor or plastic cowl covering, so there's more room than we thought we had. When we went to install it on T2, these issues were discovered and it has necessitated the re-design of a few minor parts. This project is in it's final stages, and the TS release will follow shortly."

Curious was T1 the one that ran at SSHS7?

[94_302]

That may be your best bet for a TS I tried to contact Kenne Bell about the kit the 2.8 for an 01 Cobra that would have the intake on the drivers side and they had no idea what I was talking about and said they don't even have any plans for a new kit.

[ImpalaSlayer]

dont know, they wouldnt return my call :D

Licensed, tagged, insured inspected for street driving, as long as the slicks are off.
Trilogy 1 also just got a brand new full stainless exhaust, with SW headers and mufflers at Grand Muffler.
It is street legal. As far as how much street time it sees you'd need to ask Jerry.

With out a wiper motor how do they get the wipers to work, a hand crank?

Wipers aren't needed to be street legal, or driven on the street, I know quite a few people who's wipers have never been on.

Soooo....what were YOU talking about?:P

[ChiTownMaraud3r]

I agree with some of the guys on that site, about the eaton looking better than the twin screw. Well, guess we'll have to wait for numbers to drop.

As long as the bad boy delivers, and screams while at it i'm game.

[RF Overlord]

Wipers aren't needed to be street legal, or driven on the streetIt depends on the state. In Massachusetts, you must have wipers with good blades and demonstrate that they are operable to get an inspection sticker.

Maybe so, but this is a michigan car

Valid point made

Nope.

There has been NOTHING official made on THIS site regarding the Trilogy Twin Screw. I would be HIGHLY suprised if anything were to be either.

You have been given a link as to where to find your answer on the matter. ANYTHING posted HERE is second hand information, and subject to error.

Wes is a vendor for TRILOGY. Post up the question in his forum.

My opinion is a twin screw would be fabulous for making power. Great engineering, great support, great tune, lots of high boost (14-20psi) potential.


The only problem is that it would make more power than my block, injectors, rods, tranny, tires will handle. :(

For me, if I need more power it will come from a pulley change and tune by Lidio.

In the post below, they elude to the fact that the twin screw might pop marauder engines......I agree
the twin screw would be better on a built engine, or worry every time you hit the gas:beatnik:

If you remember, Lidio had a Mach 1 (same motor) with stock long block, Kenne Bell 2.8 kit, 20+ psi boost, running mid to high 10's with stock trans/torque convertor/rear end. I wouldn't see why you couldn't run 15-20psi with proper tune considering only difference is extra load due to weight of car. Fuel system and tune would be a KEY factor.

[sailsmen]

Running down a track a few times vs a daily drive.

How long do you think a stock long block will last on 20psi?

The Marauder engine blew and was replaced with a forged short block. There was an excellent thread on it but I can't find it.

IIRC, it was a 2.2 and had 15-17psi.
I also think there was some nitrous involved.

I dont remember if that motor survived. I do know there is a forged motor in it now.

[sailsmen]

Per Lidio, "We’ll I ventilated the block in Mach-1 first in the late fall"

[Raudermaster]

So wait, did Lidio's car ever sell?

[RR|Suki]

are you talking about the Marauder? that got sold quite a while back. The car that is being talked about above is a Mach 1.

[sailsmen]

The engine in his Marauder and Mach 1 "ventilated".

See Lidio's post in the above thread.

My collection of InExtremo, Saxon and Megaherz has substantially increased since you gave me that advice. :rock:

Now there's an idea! But to get the Mounties to chase me on dogsleds for several months, I'd have to be really naughty. I wonder of any of them have twin daughters?

[MCAT]

The twinscrew is actualy safer to use on a stock block than the EATON,
Why? it is more efficient than the EATON & makes less heat given equal
amounts of boost.
the promblem comes with the fact it can make more boost than the EATON
when you change the pulley.

(I like the stock look of the Eaton, that & the price:))
