nah...i havent really had any yet...intake pipe fitment has been the only real problem, but i took care of it. i just dont like the whole cent. blower gimmick, roots or turbo are my suggestions. but i guess is you want to have a bit easier time holding traction, cent blower is good as it just rolls into boost smoothly, not really shocking the tires.

its all in who you ask. really, it depends on how much boost you run. anyone can make a reliable 8 psi blower. but when you get really high up there, thats when shit can happen.

MustangMosachi on here has had his vortech S trim on for 3 years, and not a peep out of it.

stick with the big 3 if you want centrifugal: vortech, paxton and procharger.

you couldnt give me a powerdyne

Vortechs are commonly known as one of the most reliable units out there. Theyve been making basically the same blower for a long time.

Awww, I was just trying to get a leg up on the psych part of it. :D Hey, I loved my Vortech. It done me proud. You will be far far from slow. I'm liking my little junkyard setup though. It's soooooo ugly! It couldn't possibly be fast.

Someday I'll have paint. :) Maybe.

ya know...im going to get a KKK turbo...and then for the hell of it get a tag that says "KKK POWR" because that would go over so well :lol:

nothing better than kenny dirt, in a turbo stang, with KKK innuendo's
