This is why a screw blower will always be better. Air is compressed as the air is pulled through the rotors. These short lid, short blower designs on modern platforms are restricted with a roots style blower IMO. A 2.4IHI hellcat motor has a screw blower with a very tall blower design. That is a big reason why those engines make big power easily IMO. They perform like a 2.9 whipple out of the box especially when ported. The redeye 2.7IHI is even more powerful. Now you have the 3.0IHI on the Hellephant 426 that uses the same rotors as the Whipple 3.0.

These blowers are screw type as well, not roots.
