I really like the power of the superchargers, but the California 2 year test cycle is a pain in the a$$. Is it worth doing the 595 supercharger and expecting to extend the life of the motor beyond 50K with supercharger?
Was it rod bearings the first time?

Superchargers last longer than 50k. There are people that have been running superchargers for a long time without issues.

If I were supercharging I would do the 625kit but no higher. That's plenty of power anyway
