My vote is procharger, I looked at the vortech and at least on the F-body kits I looked at the whole engine is covered by the damn thing. I got my D1 Kit from Bob at EPP and I love that thing. Changing the oil was my only concern at first but now I have it down. I use a long straw that I took from a gas station and fill it up. I usually take it apart and and inspect it every other oil change since it is on my DD. i have never had any issues with it and I have over 30,000 miles on it so far.

I love the sound and the self-oiled system out of my d1sc, but i dont mind my vortech, and sounds killer as well.. I would go with a procharger if thats what your hunting for..

One vote for Procharger
Another vote for EPP
If you get into serious boost on down the line, lemme know, might have some more suggestions for you on pulley/belt issues

I'm happy with the performance of my D1-SC! Bob and Brent are great guys to work with too! My only complaint is the oil seepage from around the dipstick screw. Not a big deal though.

Thanks! Pressure builds in these head units which causes the seepage. A new nylon washer is attached to the top of the extra pack of ProCharger oil for the dipstick.

I had the Vortech and it worked for 30K and then some. Only poblem was I had to rebuild the entire kit. The only think I kept was the blower and bracket. the oil pan leaked and evem with all the upgrades it didnt make much power. had severe belt slip and went through 5 belts. I'll be calling EPP for my D1 in the next few months. I hear good things
