Does the quiet Vortech give up any internal strength compared to the standard unit? I was wondering... I assume the quiet is made with angle cut gears and the standard uses straight cut, am I correct? Just wondering if it was even an issue.

straighter cut gears are usually stronger, but the gears in the superchargers are very over engineered, heck powerdyne even uses belts in some of their weak *** units.
