TAF has one in Atlanta but he's not on the .net anymore. I think there are around 10 or so out there. Very limited production.

I think TAKEDOWN's got one. Also, Hotrauder's old car had a TS. (WINK)

There may not be as many existing as the numbers indicate. The FruitPunch, with Trilogy #110 (now in the beautiful Black Terror of Mr. Bill Bandy) won the First released TS #003 ( #001 and #002 were Jerry Barnes') and may not have been sold) with a $100 MCM raffle ticket supporting the Woodward Dream Cruise. At 678 miles the blower seized as it had been shipped without oil. A few days prior to the #003 sieze-up one of Jerry's also siezed as it too had been shipped without oil. The Eatons always were oiled at the factory, the Lisham TS were not and there were no instructions or warning labels. The #003 was replaced by Trilogy with a new TS that is one of those numbers unclaimed, I have no idea which number. So, there is at least one that Jerry had, one that replaced mine and two that were junked. They are quite rare, extremely strong and unlike the Eatons do not run out of steam at the higher rms at the far end of the track. They also have the capacity to make as much as 23# of boost.:eek: I miss the FruitPunch a lot but love where she is knowing she is loved with Ed and she is a special connection for both of us. Ed is an old friend, did the pizza and beer wrenching pitch-in and asked first. Bingo. Yes, Waymon, he did it. All the best to all my fellow Marauder nuts. I will be around and although my sit on the stool with a beer while my friends turn wrenches on my car days are over, I hope to do exactly that while wrenches are turned on other Marauders. I needed 2 more seats than I had in my Ford Edge DD and found them in another Ford product...the Lincoln MKT .... a different kind Marauder with quiet and smoothness and twin turbo chargers putting out 355HP with all wheel drive, paddle shifters and a voice recognition killer sound and nav system it will take me the entire 70,000 mile drive train warrentee to figure out. You stock Marauder guys watch out...this really old guy Hotrauder Lincoln will kick your ass. See you here from time to time. Drive with gusto. Dennis

What's the difference?

"The roots supercharger features two counter-rotating lobes that trap air from the intake side of the supercharger (normally at the back of the supercharger), move it around the outside casing of the lobes, and out the bottom of the supercharger through an outlet / discharge port. Like the twin screw supercharger, the roots is a "positive displacement" aka "fixed displacement" supercharger, meaning that it moves a fixed volume of air per rotation. Notwithstanding minor amounts of air-leak at low rpms, the roots supercharger cannot flow backwards like a centrifugal supercharger, and is thus nearly as efficient in its ability to pump air at low rpms as it is at high rpms. What this means is that roots superchargers are very capable of making large amounts of boost even when rpms are very low. This makes for great low-end and midrange power, and also makes them great for trucks and towing vehicles. The roots is also self lubricated, and is the simplest of the supercharger designs, meaning it is reasonably priced and very reliable.

The twin screw supercharger at first glance appears to look similar to a roots supercharger both inside and out. The two technologies are indeed similar, however there are significant differences. At the heart of the twin-screw supercharger are two rotors, or "screws" that rotate towards each other. The rotors mesh together and draw air from the back of the supercharger. The twisting rotors move the air to the front of the supercharger, while compressing the air before discharging through a port at or near the front of the supercharger...
Because the compression is done inside the supercharger, this design produces less heat than a roots supercharger - in fact, it is almost as thermally efficient as a centrifugal design. Like the roots design, the twin-screw is a fixed displacement supercharger (meaning that it pumps a fixed volume of air per revolution), and because the tolerances between the rotating screws are very tight, its ability to create boost at low rpms is unparalleled. These characteristics make it ideal for trucks and towing vehicles, where low to mid range power is primary in importance. Another important advantage of the twin screw compressor is its reliability. Unlike a roots supercharger, the rotors in a twin screw supercharger do not actually touch, so there are virtually no wearing parts. For this reason, twin screw compressors are commonly used to pressurize cabins in passenger aircraft. Like roots superchargers, twin screw superchargers are self lubricated and do not tap into the engine's oil supply.

One disadvantage of the twin screw design is that, because it has an internal compression ratio, the twin screw is compressing air even when it is not sending boost to the engine (i.e. under cruising or deceleration). An internal bypass valve releases the pressurized air, but because it takes work to pressurize the air in the first place, the twin screw supercharger draws more power from the engine than while not under boost. Like the roots, the throttle body must be placed before the compressor because it is a fixed displacement supercharger."

well people looking to upgrade from there original trilogy to a T/S can still do it themselves, the blower is still avaliable http://www.lysholm.us/_2300ax.php
or buy a gen 1 whipple which is the same,or go gen 2 either one will work.....
since jerry isn't making anymore kits let alone the T/S upgrade.
I know someone who install several of the upgrade kits and states the upgrade is a walk in the park.....

makes more power with less boost and it doesn't heatsoak as bad. At 16psi depending on compression on the motor 550rwhp to 600rwhp can be acheived. I still haven't seen a eaton reach 520rwhp on full boost in a marauder.

Who did that?

(Charlie?) Defyant and Rich (o'sfan?), and another fellow met once to discuss placing one on my 2000 Grand Marquis with the DOHC engine. I was very grateful that they made the trip to Defyant's place to look my car over. Very nice fellows to do this!

The collective thought at the time was that there might not be enough room at the firewall as the biggest issue. I was dead set on moving to get one since it seemed as though the TS/Trilogy was a limited run item. Made several phone calls with Jerry to discuss the option. A larger hood was already available with the class glass.

I made the final decision, so I don't hold it against them in any way. My regret is missing out when I had the opportunity to get one.

Someday I'd love to get a roots style power adder. Derrick has let me drive his resurrected Trilogy that he recently bought. It is a blast to drive!
