Re: which one of these supercharger is better?
I prefer Procharger, obviously, but either one appropriately sized I'm sure will do close to the same. I like not worrying about the oil coming from the motor as well as not having to do the work for that.

I doubt it, I know my blower and bracket holding it get too hot to touch and I don't see even ambient air temperature oil helping that much to make a noticeable difference.

Re: which one of these supercharger is better?
Id say go with procharger like said above since its self contained and will produce similar numbers. After what i saw earlier this year i wouldnt run and oil line to my pan or whatever my friend had it with a vortech he shredded his belt and it ripped the oil line out of his $300+ oil pan and the oil sprayed everywhere and he lost it all.

Re: which one of these supercharger is better?
procharger is by far the best. but if you just want low hp then the vortec is cheaper

Re: which one of these supercharger is better?
I have been doing a good bit of research on superchargers as I am seriously considering purchasing one. The Procharger is what I 'm leaning toward. The P1-SC and D1-SC are both self contained head units, no need to tap into the oil pan. Just have to change the oil in it every 6000 miles and the P1-SC can produce up to 800HP.

Re: which one of these supercharger is better?
I like paxton and they made a lot of superchargers just for 3rd gens and they are still around.
you can get them complete on ebay - about twice a year, for less than 1500.00 i just let one pass me by for 1025 and i am so pissed at myself for doing it.
