Yeah quite possibly, although I believe the Vortech is a bigger unit than the c30 used in the jackson kit. Move to a c38 and your power curve suffers a bit too. But yeah the rotrex units are more sexy high-tech and the vortech units seem old tech to me. But mine works, I slapped a 3.125 pulley on it and had my tuner limit at the top end and it gives it a fatter midrange (for a centrifugal unit). Move to E85 and you can get some pretty big power without swapping the unit, although I'd bet there is more parasitic drag from these than the c30's. Anyways, talking about reliability, I think the vortech units are pretty stout with the exception of the cold weather thing so keep that in mind. Also rebuildable vs replacement - they all wear out over time. The rotrex units I'm sure are reliable enough, but like others the failures I've read about were enough to give me some pause. But then again my vortech will probably self destruct tomorrow

gotta be willing to take risks with any aftermarket FI products.
