The shaft on the Vortech has been corrected by Vortech. The new ones do not have the same problem. As far as tq goes....at least ur getting ur power right away while turbo people have to get their RPMs way up in order for the power to really start to kick in. Superchargers start working at 2000 RPM. and in my opinion (and i know people will hound me about this cuz they don't understand what opinion is) but turbos are for imports and superchargers are for domestics. turbos require custom headers and exhaust, turbo times for precision, and a sh!t load of work to get it in. I don't like turbos becuase i don't really like the sound of blow off valves, it gives away what u got. but that's just my opinion. so.....let the hounding begin (cuz i know it will anyway).
