Default Re: Vortec Super Charger vs. turbo charger

Yeah I wanted to know realiabilty...I mean nothing is better then a stock engine on reliability once you started adding the power then there are more things to go wrong. Looking at Vortech versuses like for instant a fmax turbo kit which retails on average $3100 the vortech average $4000 for the whole kit with cooler so yeah the turbo is cheaper you get a lot of things and it comes ready to bolt on with the factory set boost(which is ok in my book for now cause I will upgrade to hondata and more boost later on) but against each other coming factory on a factory low mileage engine I wonder which one will last longer. I have heard that supercharges aren't as hard on the engines, but I am like a lot fo you guys and girls on here I am pulling for the turbo kit I was just clearing up and doubts before I went and bought one.....want to make the right choice if I throw out the much dough.
