Reliable Supercharger?

JOHNNY K. · August 4th, 2008, 01:08 PM

In your opinion, would you say that aftermarket superchargers are reliable enough for dailly driving or long trips?

ZoomZoomMFer · August 4th, 2008, 01:20 PM

procharger or vortec

My Procharger has been relaible for me. I drove it to Cali and back, and pleny of 4-5hr trips

i would say they are plenty reliable... if you think about it, a lot of car companies put superchargers on their cars from the factory, so it can't be that bad.

just make sure you buy a brand name s/c and not some homemade shitty one

You get what you pay for. Also, the harder your pushing the less reliable it will be. If your putting our 6 psi, it will be very reliable. Not 100k miles reliable. But pretty reliable. If your pushing 12psi on stock internals. Your playing russian roulette every time you start the car. So, get a decent supercharger and run it as it was intended, and you should be fine.
