The origins of Sprintex began in the United Kingdom over 25 years ago where the first patented Twin-Screw Sprintex unit was produced. Since those beginnings, the Sprintex unit has been developed, evolving from the S102 twin screw to the current fifth generation Sprintex Unit.
Sprintex is unique as it is one of only a select number of companies around the world that produces a twin helical screw type supercharger, for which it holds world wide patents.
The patented Sprintex twin screw supercharger is a mechanically driven rotary compressor with two helical lobed rotors, which rotate in opposite directions. One rotor takes the form of the left-hand helix, the other the right hand helix and the two mesh together to form chambers which carry the air. The rotors never touch, but are timed by a pair of gears operating in a lubricated chamber which is separated from the rotor chamber.
The advantages of installing a Sprintex Supercharger Kit in your vehicle are considerable with increases in power (35%), improved torque from idle (35%), absence of lag and of course improved driving performance.
Higher boost levels and power increases of 100% are possible with suitably modified engines.
The high efficiency low boost nature of the Sprintex Supercharger results in lower discharge temperatures and greater volumetric efficiency therefore ensuring maximum performance output without sacrificing the life of your engine.
Technology – Concept
The patented Sprintex supercharger is a positive displacement unit with its patented twin-helical rotor profile unique only to Sprintex. This allows for lower discharge temperatures and higher volumetric efficiency, which in turn assists with engine bay packaging. The Sprintex unit in low boost configuration, in most cases, will not require inter-cooling. It operates effectively in both OEM and aftermarket installations and has been the subject of many years of ongoing research and development.
Screw superchargers have long been the choice of engine builders in extreme motor sports such as drag racing. As an example, the Sprintex supercharged Triumph produces 1,600 BHP from 1400cc and currently holds the Australian top speed and quarter mile records, as well as being the 2004 Australian Top Bike Champion.

SPRINTEX S5 Series
The Sprintex supercharger is a positive displacement, mechanically driven twin screw type compressor. Its unique, patented rotor profile design exhibits minimal internal leakage and has low parasitic losses.
The patented Sprintex rotor design, coupled with its tight internal clearances provide excellent efficiency and minimal leakage at all operating speeds resulting in superior all round performance.
The power increase on a Sprintex equipped engine is linear, with an instant throttle response and no lag. Significant torque gains are achieved at low engine speed and are maintained throughout the operating range of the engine. Sprintex superchargers are compatible with most fuels and engine cycles and application flexibility.
