Been keeping an eye on both kits but leaning more toward innovate.

I was eyeing the Innovate, but I couldn't wait any longer. If I like what I see, then I may switch to it.

Innovate, totally. I don't like how the vortech takes up all of the room in front of the drive pulleys. I like that space there for big fat radiators, and fans, and oil coolers and, and, and, and.....

In all seriousness, I am looking forward to some of the stuff John has been messing around with, when it comes to our car and FI. I'm really stoked about how the ECU can control boost pressure on the fly, per gear. Also the work he's been doing with Flex fuel setups has me all tingly inside. Trying to get my car running on my P&L turbo system before John comes out to Phoenix so i can get him to work some magic on it!

John try becoming a dealer for vortech now.

if and when Innovate is ready, consider them too

either will bring you the meat of the community, and your NA tune following will easily adapt to something like a vortech offering

4 hour installs and wham, bam thank you ma'am, off they go, reliable tuned for 93% of folks

there will be 7% pain in the ass types like me to bill hourly for custom tuning and folks who want to test and take risks and help use a healthy dosage of good judgment, who will help pioneer shit that will make this platform have the bells and whistles you are talking about

keep us posted and what dealership agreements you can offer your customers looking for that which you are offering
e85 flex fuel and vortech sound like something fun to play with, I dont know, seems like a fun way to burn up some money...and rubber

Innovate. I'm only interested in twin screw because of the sound, linearity, and always on torque.

January is going to be a fun month.

Lots of Forced induction, lots of Dyno sheet overlays.

This kit is going to be badass.

Innovative. I was watching the vortech, but the lack of low end isn't doing it for me.

BTW, I hope you aren't this much of a tease to your wife.

Currently I have been looking into the Vortech supercharger because of their high emphasis on reliability and have mostly heard good things about them. Does anybody know anything about Innovate that would like to enlighten me?
