Default Vortech or jackson?

I am planning on getting the Vortech V-5 w/ satin but was wondering what everyone has had experience with. Can you tune more from the Vortech or the Jackson? And which is more reliable?

why are you posting this in here...vortech doesnt make a s/c for a ITR. But if this a general question vortech makes a better s/c hands down.

Vortech = dyno queen. Great peak #'s, but only at high rpm. Jackson seems to have a better power band, but lower peak hp.

are you talking about a custom S/C or something? a S/C isnt the way to boost a ITR anyway...if you are going to go boost DRAG Gen III is the only way to go. ITRs do not respond well to superchargers. Please post a link to the Vortech s/c for a ITR. I would really like to see it. their website turned up absolutely nothing

There's nothing I enjoy more than handing a "jrsc basher" like you his *** on the track. I'm not sure who started the "itr w/ jrsc sucks bandwagon" (ahem, Ross), but you shouldn't necessarily believe everything you hear and then regurgitate it as gospel. All that does is cause misinformation and confusion.
