Fair enough, but if you are dropping absolute minimum 5K on a supercharger, chances are you are an enthusiast and will know better. Unless you're a kid playing with mommy and daddy's money or whatever.

I haven't seen that many instances of bent rods on the 260ish hp power levels you get with these systems (before you go nuts and start adding smaller pullies etc). Nor has my mechanic/tuner fwiw.
