I have to say... after knowing how my car felt at .5 bar on the street (which is the highest I have had it except on the dyno) Pete's car is insane. I'm humbled...

Yellow Streak, what made you chose the comptech Supercharger over the vortech supercharger?

My main reasons were:

1. The Comptech unit had been out longer at the time and was more of a known quantity.
2. I wanted to do the installation myself and the Comptech unit seemed like it was more within the scope of my ability.

I have heard a lot of complaints about the comptech surpercharger and it's bracket. That the bracket breaks, and that the belt from the pulley comes loose. I haven't heard any of these complaints about the vortech. One reason I'm leaning more towards the vortech is because of its aftercooler, something very important in determining HP {cool air}. But, YS congrats on the number you have put down with the SC.

I got my kit in August and it came with the new generation brackets. I haven't heard of any issues with these brackets. I don't think that you can go wrong with either kit.

Pete,

It was an awesome experience to see and hear your car rolling on the dyno. Seeing flame shooting out of the Spoon was phat

man, 290 reasons to go the FI route

YS, are you still running with the stock clutch? are you worry about the differentials give up on you?
