Sprintex Superchargers is a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Automotive Technology
Group group of companies, an automotive
engineering company based in Perth,
Western Australia.
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 fourth 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.
As well as manufacturing their patented
twin screw supercharger,
Sprintex also specialises in designing Supercharger
Kits to suit specific vehicles, with
current conversions including MG ZT's,
MG ZS's, Rover 75 ’s, petrol and diesel
Toyota Landcruisers,
Mitsubishi
Magnas,
and Harley Davidson V Rods. All
conversions are bolt on in nature
allowing for easy installation and
complete compatibility with the
vehicle’s engine.
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. 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.
Manufactured and designed in Western
Australia, the team at Sprintex are
internationally trained and experienced
in all facets of Supercharging,
including emissions, ADR compliance,
secondary ECU control systems, design,
prototype manufacture, OEM compliant
engineering solutions and custom
installations.
Sprintex has a reputation for adaptive
and pro-active thinking and an ability
to provide quick and effective solutions
for customers, from prototypes programs
to full OEM compliant engineering
solutions. In any application from
Automotive to Marine, Sprintex has the
expertise to undertake design and
development programs.
