Procharger or Vortech ?

Just over 10K miles now on my P1SCH... only oil leak I've had was a small weep from the drainplug when I didn't get it tight enough.

FYI, I believe the P1SC and D1SC series both use the same gearbox and geartrain, I think only the impeller wheel and exducer housing are different. Procharger can change a P1SC over to a D1SC; thus I don't see why a P1SC would be any more prone to oil leakage than a D1SC. Just luck of the draw I suppose.

Also, the Procharger seals are quite easy to change; they are standard Chicago Rawhide (CR) seals and at least on the front seal you can read the number with the pulley still on and get a new one at the parts store, and you only have to remove the front pulley to be able to change it. To get to the back seal you need to yank the impeller, which can be a REAL pain because they usually put the sucker on with red loctite. Gotta heat it up to remove it. Oh, and make sure you re-loctite the impeller and the bolt holding it on... things get ugly if that bolt backs off.
