This is all just opinion of course, but i like superchargers like saleen and what not for a daily driver because the power comes in right away all the throughout the rpm band, feels like one big engine.

Umm, there was just a thread on this. Couple pages in.......almost 4 pages long.

Street car = twin screw
Race = twin screw or turbo. If you are racing, you'll want to forge the internals too....since it will be under much more stress then daily driving

if you want the power at higher rpms, buy a turbo or a centrifugal super charger

edit:3 that come to mind are vortech, paxtonand procharger
