Innovate doesn't provide top end power like the other kits. I am not a fan of the whine.

The kraftworks uses the cogged belt iirc. This will make it difficult to find a replacement?

JR kit uses stock belt but still takes a fluid that is way overpriced. WAY more overpriced than the Vortech system.
It uses a fluid that you change every 50k miles. 50,000. Works out to... 0.2 cents per mile, ($0.002 dollars per mile)

Your engine oil will work out to a higher cost per mile than that, even using the cheapest oil available.
