IMO, the centrifugal sc kits with FMIC (Vortech, JR, KW) seem to manage heat better than the turbo kits with the turbo located near the radiator. Before I got the Vortech, I was looking at the AVO kit. I had other turbo cars in the past and wanted to try the sc route so I went with the Vortech.
I have a buddy here with a FBM kit and he has yet to track his car because he is afraid of the car overheating. I've seen his car after some spirited runs on the street and it does run hot. Even with the supporting cooling mods.
@diss7, I have been following your cars build and know you were disappointed with the bullet kit. It seems to have put you off on super chargers on this platform. I get that. But the bullet/innovate kit design seemed to be less heat efficient than the other sc kits.
