Which supercharger is the most reliable long term? I am trying to use my 98 stock LS1 for a daily driver and I want to supercharge it but maintain drivability and reliability. I want a system that will last a long time without major problems. do you have any suggestions for what company i should go with.

While i don't know of any 60,000+ mile prochargers running around, they both are solid units.
I bought a used vortech off ebay, if that tells you my opinion of those units. All of the vortech cars i've worked on have had 20-30K miles on the headunits, any still running fine. One friends car has 60K+ , gone through 2 owners, but same vortech blower.
