Ok so I went through the whole F/I threads with people with superchargers.

Im going to be in the market for a supercharger, but not sure on the reviews with them.

like whats better, and why? Or which ones have problems? or why is the other one not so good?

Vortech

Procharger

Stillen.

and

maybe even this one to give you a HP idea of what you want to make and what its being pushed too, also might open up other options for whatever your goals are..

Good luck and read up. Also check with your installer/tuner and see what they say...

 

Vortech hands down. Aside from the fact that it makes good power, it is also the most upgradable in terms of head units. Aftermarket impellers, bearings along with vortech supported upgrades gets my votes over any of the other supercharger brands.

 

STILLEN hands down...

 

TVS Eaton 1320 coming soon. Eaton TVS 1650 would be better but not in production yet. They should bolt up to the stillen kit.

 

+1 on STILLEN, how could I forget that....

 

Search, But I would say Procharger ease of install less maintance. No belt slip. IMO. I kinda miss my procharger, love the sound they make.

 

Stillen for the most powa down low.

 

Just get an APS TT Tuner kit..... makes about the same power and you can tell people you have TT.

 

I went with the Vortech because I got a good deal, if not for that I would've went with teh Supernetics!

 

These threads = fail, surprised its not locked yet... The answer all depends on two things - who you ask and when do you want your power to kick in...

If you want low end power, and the ability to peel off from a standstill = Stillen
If you want power in the mid to upper rpm range = vortech / procharger

The new HKS kit is money. And i don't much about it. I do know it comes in like 4 or 5 different stages. Obviously each stage gives more power and it just depends on how deep your pockets are.

Vortech kit seams the most popular and seems a tad more reliable than procharger. Procharger is a little easier to install (no tapping of the oil pan required) and you can swap out the bypass valve to whatever you want.

Both kits will be recommended by the people who own them... Hope this helps...

Your "best" supercharger question will never be answered. Too many variables and in each kit, and too many opinions on each kit. Just do your homework and decide which kit will satisfly your F/I craving best...

 

you can get a version of the vortech (V3 blower) that has its own oil supply so you don't have to tap the block, but it's still better to tap the block anyway from a cooling and maintenance standpoint
