If I had to chose I would go with the Vortech. I looked over the two very closely and the Vortech is a nicer kit, IMO.

I had a Powerdyne on my last truck, an S-10, and would not buy one again. In my experience the ducting did not fit properly and the overall quality if the kit is better than the Vortech kits. The bearings in my Powerdyne went bad after only 16k miles and I had to send it in to get it rebuilt.

I'll say this...There is a reason the Powerdyne is less expensive, and the reason isn't cause Mexicans make it.

We've been carrying both brands for years. I would definately go with the Vortech. They offer complete kits, excellent quality and will also make more power.
