My car currently makes 630rwhp with a Posi ported Eaton but trying to determine what is what exactly.

FRPP 2.3 is a Roush. Base package, inlet, etc Limited pulley fitment.

VMP Gen 1 was an enhanced Roush/FRPP. Ported, we manufactured a high flow inlet elbow for it and had the shaft reduced for broader fitment of smaller pulleys.

Trinity. Base on 13-14 Gt500. Made by Roush. It was the evolution of our Gen 1. They took everything we'd done to the GEN1 then opened the inlet up on the bottom/left corner to try and add flow to the inboard rotor. It didn't work, but the end result was that overall flow was about 10% superior to our GEN 1. We sell the Billet Pro Shop high flow elbow for Trinity to let it breathe better. You can have it ported and the EGR removed/area welded for a price. To have one ported, EGR removed, etc and make it a good deal, you'll have to buy a Trinity at less than $1500. You can find them and if you like the look, it's a good option.

VMP Gen II. The Mac Daddy of TVS superchargers. We completely redesigned everything from the tail of the rotor pack, rearward. Employed an integral elbow design. It flows 18% more air than our own GEN 1 and 9% more than Trinity. Billet Pro Shop is modding a GEN II to run on their drag car this season. Getting rid of the EGR and opening the port a touch. They'll tell you that there isn't much to port on these things. Jimmy Larocca did one and told me there was so little work to be done on it that it literally takes a third of the time to maximize a GEN II that it does a Trinity. GEN II retails for $2999. The forum discount makes it $2850. Comes with a full 1 year warranty and tech support along with your choice of pulley.

ALL VMP TVS superchargers are built at Performance Assembly Solutions, a subsidiary of Roush, in Livonia MI. They are built by the same team that builds every Trinity blower, FRPP blowers, etc. Same guys, same room, same testing. Every unit is spin tested and pressure tested just like the OEM units. Nobody else has that level of quality and testing. Nobody.

If you're making 630 on a ported Eaton, you're beating down the door of efficiency on the M122. The heat soak has to be really bad.

Hope that helps. With a GEN II, you can do anything like your 630 at the tire while loafing to 900rhwp on a built motor. My '07 GT500 has a completely stock long block with 60,000 miles on the clock. It makes 805-810 to the tire on e85. I daily drive it. We use the same blower on our kits for 11+ GT/Coyote. Our '11 GT drag car runs 9.0xxx@152mph on the blower. Our Boss 302 makes 875rwhp on it.

It'll do whatever you want to do up to 900rwhp or so.
