[QUOTE="beefcake, post: 12772831, member: 1692"] There are many benefits to the paxton / vortech setups over the procharger setup. 1) The Pax/Vor kits have a larger intercooler, than even the stage 2 procharger kit. 2) The Air intake placement. The pax/vor setup reusues the factory air box location, which has proven to be a great source of air and great right from the factory. The procharger inlet is at the rear bay of the engine sucking in heat from not only the engine, but from the headers as well. HOT HOT HOT. The pax/vor are still adaptable to using a JLT CAI kit as well. 3) Crank stress. The Pax/Vor setup utilizes the factory tensioner setup. It adds 0 more stress to the crank. The Procharger setup adds an extra pulley to the front of the crank, an extra tensioner, which is constantly pulling. I have seen more than one crank fail on these cars with that setup. 4) More Power Potential - The 2200 kit will outperform any stage 1 or stage 2 and even the upgraded head units above the stage 2 procharger. 5) And this is the best - Cost. The cost is less. Hands down, the best way to go. The only benefit to the procharger is that if for some reason the s/c belt breaks, the car can still run. However, as the vortech / paxton's utilize the oem belt setup, the chances of a belt actually breaking is slim to none. In 3 years, i have yet to be left stranded on the side of the road, my drive to the track is over 60 minutes each way [/QUOTE]
