Eaton vs. Trilogy

[Gccch]

Beginning to search for S/C options for my MM.... I have time not in a big hurry. Would you advise me to wait to find a nice Trilogy set come available or begin the search for Eaton? Is there a significant performance difference or is it more about packaging and effort needed for installation?

By the way, what does the "swap" refer to? Just that you are swapping parts off a Mustang?

Same blower , different wrapper! i like the LOOK of the Trilogy looks very oem and at home under the hood. and yes just swapping it into the Marauder.

While the Trilogy looks like the car rolled off the assembly line that way, I think you'd be better off doing the Eaton swap as parts will be more available. Depending on how it's tuned, I'd be willing to bet they're equal in terms of performance.

You just answered my latest question. If I can buy a trilogy blower but none of the other parts I am basically in the same boat as eaton swap but with harder to find parts to do the job.

I thought the lower intake on the Trilogy kits was different from the one on the Cobra... no?

[BeeDamn]

Guys please correct me ! I was thinking that the Trilogy is twin screw right ?

I'm sure that i saw a video of a twin screw trilogy !!! was that a mod...

[RF Overlord]

I was thinking that the Trilogy is twin screw right?No. Trilogy did produce a couple of prototype TS kits, but the original 250 kits were all regular Eaton.

No the lower intakes are oem Cobra , intercoolers are drilled Slightly different as stated earlier.

I think there were 20 twin screw kits made with a Lysholm 2.3 supercharger. I have one. They are part of the original 250 kits. They were not prototypes, the cost just went up too much for the Lysholm over the regular one, for them to keep producing the twin screw kit.

I believe 18 kits were produced with me getting the last of the TS parts available from Jerry.....Lysholm 2.3 is identical to the gen 1 Whipples.

I believe 18 (TS) kits were produced Thanks for the corrections, guys.

When I took the tour of Trilogy's facility, I thought Jerry Barnes told me he was having the lower intakes cast in Brazil...something like that...I prolly mis-understood him. This was also way before the TS was introduced.
