Default vortech SC unit for 2 liter?

I don't understand enough about these superchargers to figure out on my own.

I have 85mm gsr motor with 11-11.5 compression forged pistons and pro1 cams.

and trying to figure out if any other version of vortech blower unit will work with this motor.

I know there are other CCW versions besides V5 that comes with b series kit

just don't know how to figure out if they support the RPM(9000 redline) and if they are somewhat properly sized for this motor.

its gonna be intercolled and mounted in AC spot


im a bit confused about the gear ratio/ max boost pulley sizes and cfm etc. too many variables...


im looking for alternatives because the V5 is a bitch to find and find a decent deal on it. everyone wants arm and a leg

the other versions are cheaper sometimes

Rotrex is even more expensive.
I havent seen any rotrex kits for less than 2000

I picked up my v5 kit for 400 bucks
And seen few of them sold for a sweet deal

But im asking if any other version of vortech will work with 2 liter

Rotrex kits are setup for front intercooler im gonna use the water cooled setup from vortech.i read they are more efficient.

Not really, it all depends upon the boost pressure level, pulley, timing and use. So, its not as absolute as you're stating But that's not your question, so I won't deflect
