crazy idea

[A fireman]

I was reading up on FI for my 1994 bird and i stumbled across a strange supercharger for a corvette. the TB faces forward but its a twin screw. I'm not to sure of the hardware or cost of one of these rigs because it requires an idler bar to run parallel to the unit but I had the thought why not solve 2 issues with one shot. if I make a new upper intake manifold that bolts to the twinscrew i could eliminate that awful manifold and gain the benefits of a SC. In theory it seems easy enough but I think I'm missing something. I guess my question is dose it seem feasible to do or have i overlooked something extremely critical. also if some one has done this I would love to get pics to base my design off

Re: crazy idea

you can save $4000 and just go with a turbo.

being a 3.4L you cant really tune it.

stick with a turbo.

If you can do it, by all means go for it. I don't even know what a 3.4 looks like but hey, I'm all for innovation. Just plan it out as best as you can before you dump money into it to find that it won't work. Like, however much space you have to work with, what are you gonna do about fuel, etc..
