TORQUE MONSTER

摘要

There's nothing pragmatic about a Roots-style blower. It's a big, bulky monster that requires hacking up the hood. It's also a technological simpleton, predating Larry King. Worst of all, it's trounced by turbos and centrifugal super- chargers, in terms of efficiency. But its drawbacks notwith- standing, when it comes to visual intimidation, the Roots is king. Sure, that's not the most practical reason to drop one on your motor, but if you want practical, go buy a Honda and move into the slow lane.
