    The "NOVI" superchargers were named so as a tribute to the Novi engined Indianapolis race car owned and operated by Andy Granatelli, brother of Joe Granatelli who was part owner of Paxton Superchargers at the time when the NOVI 2000 was being developed.

    What I'm unsure about however is whether the Novi engined Indy cars were named after the City of Novi in Michigan...
