comptech... it's a better looking setup......

the comptech and vortech are practically the same exact kit... so pretty much your preference

 

i prefer the comptech, both set ups work the same. its personal preference

 

I went with the Vortech because of the higher boost potential.

 

The only difference like sidways said is the higher power potential. And you have to tap you oil pan on the vortech, the comptech you don't. Correct, Sideways ? Have you gotten new tires for the rear of your car I saw the pics from C.C. and they were bald as hell !!!!!

 

Hmm, I always thought the potentials were similar?

 

humm i'm not sure about that power potential thing... from what i know it's the exact same blower .......they both use the same paxton blower.....however paxton owns vortech...

 

COMPTECH

as for boost potential its all depending on the pulley! anywhere from 6 to 20 lbs! you just have get a custom pulley made. i like the way the comptech kit looks way more than the vortech. the vortech setup looks cheap to me. that hillbilly V8 look

 

Hmm I read eihter blower is only good up to 14 psi. Besides any smaller pulley than that would slip.

The s/c's do use different units.

 

I really have to disagree on that the Comptech looks better than the Vortech setup. I hate the way the Comptech setup looks personally...it doesnt look finished. I guess it depends on if you get the polished upgrade. Otherwise, get which ever one you want. Tapping the oil pan really isn't that big of a deal...just as long as it's done right.


How does this look hillbilly????

You dont have to tap into the oil pan with the competch one because it supplies you with a drain plug that has a hole and a line attached to it and that acts as the oil return right back into the pan!!! i think vortech i think MUSTANG. EWWW

 

They dont look athat different.

 

look pretty much the same if you ask me

 

so pretty

 

the two main differences that i see... and this makes me choose the comptech...

1. carbon fiber filter box on the comptech (it looks really nice)
2. look at the vortech intake tube that connects to the filter. at the end of it, it looks like you went out to home depot and got some of that tubing that you use on your dryer in the basement to channel air out....

but this is just my oppinion... as for performance they are both very similar, and as for looks, they are also very similar..
