“Eaton is the world leader in supercharger technology,” said Eaton Vehicle Group product strategy manager, Ed Lunder. “Cosworth has a strong history of engine development and is well known and respected in the worldwide automotive market.”
“Global OEMs, niche manufacturers and performance enthusiasts all rely on Cosworth to provide power systems, and we look forward to working with them to bring Eaton’s TVS supercharger technologies to them as well.”
Eaton’s TVS supercharger design boosts power and low-end torque while providing vehicle manufacturers with the option of using a smaller, more efficient engine with no loss in performance or drivability.
The TVS supercharger is a roots-type positive displacement supercharger that features twin four-lobe rotors that are twisted 160-degrees.
The intermeshing, high-speed rotor design pumps air directly into the engine’s intake system that, when mixed with fuel, creates more power.
