Apparently, the reason why the aerocharger has had such a bad rap is because when the turbocharger first came into production the material they used for the housing was not the right formulation of metal which caused it to expand and take away valuable clearance in the turbine causing it to sieze. While this has been solved, they (ie ppls opinion and experience) have found that the VATN is still less reliable than the run of the mill turbo.
