Both systems will work fine on a daily driver. Vortech's 9# kit will give you a 140-150hp increase while the ATI D-1SC will make about 140. We can order the ATI with a smaller pulley to get you to 10# while an extra pulley will need to be ordered for the Vortech. The Vortech comes with everything you need for the install including programming while you will need to purchase injectors, a fuel pump and programming for the ATI seperate (not a big deal).

I've used both brands with no problems. Some customer prefer the Vortech while others will go for the ATI. ATI's D-1SC will give you more room to upgrade if needed.

Hope this helps,
Tom
