V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger Technology
The V-3 Si-Trim represents continued development from Vortechs engineering lab. The Si designation stands for improved, incorporating a patented oil control system and a state-of-the-art centrifugal compressor stage. With an industry-leading 78% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723), the V-3 Si generates less heat, reduces parasitic drive loss, and delivers more net power compared to lower-efficiency designs while improving long-term durability.
Tuner Kit Configuration Explained
Tuner kits include the complete supercharger and charge cooler hardware but are supplied without fuel system upgrades or ECM reprogramming. This allows experienced tuners and racers to configure fuel delivery, ignition timing, and boost levels to match specific engine builds and performance objectives.
For applications requiring sustained boost operation, such as road racing, Vortech also offers V-2 series superchargers that share the engines oiling system and allow additional oil cooling options.
