Common Supercharger Issues?
I'm looking for feedback on some of the common problems people experience with their blowers. For example oil leaks appear to be common on prochargers, belt tensioner problems are common with Whipple.
What are some of the other problem people have experienced with thier blowers?

So far, so good, with my Vortech V-2 standard S-Trim blower. No problems to report, other than perpetually trying to adjust the tuning better and better (not really a problem).

I had to replace a rubber elbow that connects to my intercooler. It took about ten minutes to replace. Other than that it has been smooth sailing

As far as problems with the Whipple, my gas mileage sucks because I can't keep my foot out of it. Does that count ? Oh yeah traction is a problem unless you're easy in first, otherwise you kinda just sit there and spin the tires. But trust me, I ain't complaining.

Had a Vortech blower for about 9 months or so, with no problems. Have a Saleen now, with no problems. Sounds like you've done your research, now it's time to buy.
