T-trim boost quicker?

Does the T-trim boost quicker than the S-trim?

Thanks

All depends on how you have the pullies setup.

Whatever it takes for a maximum boost of 10 psi on each

Not necesarilly pullied the same... just that both will reach the same max boost.

According to the compressor maps on Vortech's website:

http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/...-trim_map.html

The orange lines show the pressure ratio (boost) versus air flow for different compressor speeds. They are the same for the S versus the T trim. However, at just about every point on the curve, the T-trim has a higher adiabatic efficiency (lower discharge temps).
