The V-1 Vortech was the first supercharger offered by the company.
Basically a 500 hp to 600 hp unit and the compressor had the most basic compressor wheel configuration.

Richard Holdener, the Internet Guru, had Vortech supercharger number 001 which he (many years later) traded back to the Vortech company.

They wanted that unit back bad. Now the owner of Vortech/Paxton supercharger company has sold the company to the SCAT crankshaft group of companies.

More info Mike.

Thank for these updates. You should have a Youtube channel of all these dyno sessions.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
