You're on the right track, I would suggest searching, I think you've got it all, but I would contact Street Flight to get the chip burned since they know our duratecs inside out. . .reason no one is really posting is because for the money, you're pretty much wasting your time unless CARB certification is an issue. . .a street flight turbo kit will cost the same as a vortech after you've paid for all the reinstallations, laborious shipping of parts back to vortech, etc. I've asked the same question and from what I can tell, only 3 people have supercharged their engines without any problems to the car or supercharger assembly. EVERYBODY else has had issues with the supercharger.
At least the turbo kit hasn't failed, problems have only come up because people are putting them on older engines or some real bright ones run around without an intercooler (
, not naming anyone!) BUT the kit has had ZERO problems, which is evidence of the years of R&D put into it. So, if you have the $3500 laying around for the vortech, day trade in some biotech stocks for a week, and make the additionally $1500 to get the turbo kit.
