Default Xcharger Vs Vortech shoot out ???

was just wondering if any one had ever thought about a meet , and shoot out between the 2 ( all in the name of good fun and bragging rights ) I think it would also give a new found respect for both sides , I would love to ride in an x charged machine , and it would b cool to show them what the Vortech offers . just a thought

Lol from the name of the title I was like "NO! Don't get them started!"
Haha its all in good fun, I guess who doesn't like to argue?

Something like that would be a blast to go to.
I'm sure there is a lot of spirited debate at those things. Lol

I'd love to see it. I'm torn between the 2 for when I supercharge this winter. I think it's going to come down to cost effectiveness.

From what I have heard from fellow forum members and researched the Vortech is cheaper.
The X-Charger has better low end torque, but the Vortech puts out quite a bit more HP.
But the Vortech power band is at higher RPM.

I guess it just all depends on what you are wanting your car to be in the long run.

Does anyone here know which one is better for going 0 to top speed as fast as possible (on like a 3 mile stretch)?

Intercooled Vortech or intercooled X Charger?

Procharger Just stirring the pot!

any of the three would be awesome! I'm still doing my research trying to decide which one to get. Leaning towards the x-charger though
