Im not trying to sway anyone one way or another, and I didn't say this was written by god. Just a test that I came across that I found interesting.

We've tested both back to back so many time's. I know 1 is better than the other per pound of boost I think every Mustang around here has a blower

That test is also with the old P1 straight-blade impeller, which is like 1960's technology.

I think it's sad the way the 2 companies have painted themselves into a corner - ATI is against air-2-water ICs, and Vortech talks crap about Air-2-air ICs (though they sell them under the Paxton name).

Procharger seems to be winning the sales war in the Chevy arena, though.
