Heyyy @Brian@Vortech,

I'm heavily considering purchasing a kit in the next two weeks, and I just have some questions. Sorry if it's been covered already, but other than increased durability for extended operation, what (if any) are some other benefits to the V-2 blower vs. the V-3? My car is primarily street driven so it should only see short bursts of power here and there, but I am looking to get the highest peak numbers on 93 octane with water/meth injection (if necessary) and a ~3" pulley. I hope to take the car to a couple lapping days and maybe a hillclimb, where I can actually use the power. For all intents and purposes, can the V-3 produce the same power as the V-2 or no?

Second/third, where does the oil feed for the s/c source from? I read that the return was at the valve cover but not where the feed was. Is it OK to run 0W20 OE spec synthetic or should I be looking at something heavier? Thanks!
