Default Need Some Opinions

So what do you guys think of used super chargers? There seems to be some pretty decent deals on Vortech's on Ebay.

Thanks

If i was to buy a used supercharger i would rebuild it. because its extra safety to not blow your motor. other than that use your best judgment.

used ones are ok sometimes... depends on how many miles it has. say a supercharger on ebay has like 75,000 miles on it or something you will probably have to rebuild the thing which will more then likely cost the same or more as a brand new supercharger. if you can find a cheap one with like 5000 or less miles on it, it should be fine.
