Edelbrock’s E-Force Superchargers have long been known as potent and well refined pieces that bolt on and add significant horsepower and torque to street cars. People have also found out that the rigors of racing don’t make them sweat either and recently Eedlbeock E-Force supercharged cars made notable accomplishments in the worlds of drag and road racing.
On the road racing side Michele Abbate’s supercharged FR-S won the season opener of the 2016 SCCA US Majors Tour western conference. After qualifying second, she was able to stay hammer down and not only lead the field but stay in that position until the close of the 25-minute race was signaled. That was the first road racing win for the Edelbrock E-Force supercharger that the company knows about and they are understandably proud. The reality is that the constant throttle changes, acceleration, braking and other madness of road racing really works the blower hard and the E-Force is up to it.
On the straight-line side, Kent Nine scored a victory in his E-Force Supercharged 2006 Mustang and is working hard to continue to defend his 2015 NMRA SuperStang championship. The car has been worked on, modified, and drag raced hard for years with the E-Force Supercharger putting lots more kick in the pony and letting Nine have his way with the competitors in the always tough SuperStang field.
Want torque and horsepower at the end of your toe like you never thought you could have? Want to install it in a weekend with your pals? Want it to be sorted out, engineered right, and properly fitting? You want Edelbrock E-Force!
