Hi

I don't know who told you it's a 'high chance of happening'. Main bearing failure is very rare, much more so than rod bearing wear which is also rare.
That said, you are putting more strain on the main bearings with higher output supercharger kits.

BE rod bearings are indeed the way to go.

Some shops run 'specials' and will install your supercharger for free. Usually rod bearings are 2500 all in.

The ESS kits are very solid, there are plenty running around with miles on them.
