Vortech V-2 Si-Trim Supercharger Head Unit CW Rotation Curved Discharge Black 2E128-044
Black V-2 Si-Trim Centrifugal Supercharger for High-Performance Street & Strip
The Vortech V-2 Si-Trim Supercharger Head Unit (PN 2E128-044) is engineered for modern, improved-breathing engines in high-performance street and strip applications. Designed to deliver substantially improved airflow and efficiency at elevated boost levels, the V-2 Si-Trim provides strong, repeatable power gains while maintaining the refined drivability Vortech is known for.
This configuration features clockwise (CW) rotation, a curved discharge for flexible charge-pipe routing, and a durable black finish, making it a versatile choice for both performance-focused and clean-engine-bay builds.
V-2 Si-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-2 Si-Trim utilizes computer-designed, optimized helical-cut gears with a 3.61:1 internal step-up ratio, delivering quieter operation without sacrificing performance. This advanced gear profile reduces noise while supporting strong airflow and efficiency at higher boost pressures.
The V-2 design allows it to be installed into any existing Vortech V-1, V-2, V-4, or V-7 bracketry, making it a direct bolt-on replacement option for many existing Vortech systems.
Lubrication & Gearcase Design
The V-2 Si-Trim features a ventilated gearcase assembly that eliminates internal pressure buildup commonly associated with non-vented competitive designs. Integrated gearcase baffling ensures proper oil control, while a simple oil slinger design provides consistent lubrication to gears and bearings without the need for a separate shaft or bearing set.
Each supercharger is factory pre-filled with Vortechs proprietary synthetic fluid and includes an integrated dipstick for quick fluid checks, along with a remote fluid drain hose to allow clean, simple fluid changes without removing the supercharger from the vehicle.
