Re: Newb needs help-Vortech or Paxton???
I had a V-1 on my old 95 for about a year, had to rebuild it twice, once the bearings got too lloud and then the front started to leak oil, got about 7k miles on it each time before it needed the rebuilds. PLus tapping into the oil pan was a b*tch. Paxton has the self contained version I beleive. Never used them but would in the future if I went S/C again. FWIW, the V-1 was very streetable and we saw 10lbs of boost with 9lb pulley. We also ran a Boost timing master with the FMU and some 24lb injectors, went with a C&L 76mm and a trickflow intake, heads, and some good exhaust on the stock cam. Good idle and no ECU problems thank goodness. The 94-95's are touchy with mods...Good luck either way.

You're going to put a supercharger on a stock engine? Well I will recommend building the engine some before putting on a supercharger because if you run to much boost you engine will be shot. Other than that I've heard good things about Vortech.
