RE: vortech aftercooler or intercooler
it really depends both have advatnages and disadvantages... for a daily driver most folks will be plenty satisfied with an air to air intercooler, for hardcore drag racers being able to iced down is a big advantage... but those cars get heat soaked quick

RE: vortech aftercooler or intercooler
Personally I would have just bought a procharger and been done with it. My p1sc procharger came with an3 coreintercooler including all the piping with the kit. Any good supercharger kit should you would think. I am not a fan of vortech mainly for this reason, plus the tapping of the oil pan, I know I know its not a big deal trust me I know. Butstill if you can self contain it then why not. The oil stays cooler and iso form your dirty engine oil. I have a lot of personal experience with Procharger and their kit are second tonon!

Anyway Air-to-Air is probably gonna be better for your every day driver, but if your car is your weekend play toy air-to-water gives you the ability to put ice in.
