Vortech and Kraftwerks use superior blowers over comptech.
But to the OP...I don't think you can buy a new Comptech SC kit. Comptech went out of business a couple years ago and the name has been bought by a company that is specializing in road race motorsports. Vortech and Science of Speed both make similar systems.
Just to throw it out there, also consider the Stage One Technology (SOT) Roots positive displacement SC. The dyno plots on that system is pretty impressive...the torque curve is superior to those I've seen from the Paxton or Rotrex based kits.

Hmmm...since SOS, Vortech and Comptech superchargers are all Paxton NOVI units I'm not sure I understand how one is better than the other. The Kraftwerks SC is a Rotrex unit, and that is arguably more efficient than the Paxton.

What are you going to do to get enough flow from the Comptech supercharger?
I don't think it can be done.

I think the 1220-SL conversion kit is similar to the Vorteck up grade. Where the Novi 1000 delivers up to 500hp, the 1220-SL delivers up to 680hp.
I know you have had good success with the Vorteck; I just didn't like the idea of taping into the oil pan.
Wish me luck!!!
