Blower is not out. They had it along with the V17 last year at PRI. Last time I spoke with them they told me around summer, I got tired of waiting and went with a F1X.

Yea, they have been dangling the v15/17 carrot for over a year now. I would ditch the 94 and just go with the X

I am thinking to just do that.. there are so many people in here going from the x to the 94.. the x was a unique blower specific to that 275 class. Needs to be run a certain way or it is too laggy.. I would imagine my new set up would b fine.. and I would probably run 7600 or 7800 rpm.. I have some time to think since the crank will take roughly 16 weeks..

The V-15 will be at ECS testing soon, they are in the middle of durability testing as I type. They made several different valuates and impellers to get the most they can out of it. I was helping out in their booth at PRI most of the weekend and they gave me all the details. I'm looking forward to testing it because it will certainly fill a big void HP area that Paxton/Vortech didn't fill before.
