What\'s wrong with the Paxton supercharger system?

I have seen a few post regarding the regular Paxton supercharger system not being nearly as good as a custom system. Why is that? What's wrong with it?

I have been toying with the idea of supercharging my car, and I noticed that the Roe system and the regular Paxton system are competitively priced. I understand the differences between the 2 types of blowers, but I'm curious if anyone runs the Paxton system and knows how it compares to the Roe setup. I know that the Novi 2000 head unit can support over 800 rwhp. Does anyone have any track times comparing the 2?

Thanks for the replies!

I am having a Paxton installed in a few weeks and there are a couple of reasons why I didn't go with a Roe. PM sent.

Im planning on going with a paxton as well, mainly due to emissions.

I ran 965rwhp w/ a paxton (Thanks DLM!!!) for quite some time before rebuilding the motor. the paxton from-the-manufacturer kit has had some issues (try the SEARCH button for more detail). but the blower itself is quite good.
