Default Daily Driver Supercharger

Which type of supercharger do you think is best for a daily driver? I have 4.10's by the way. And I dont plan on going any higher than 450rwhp.

Arguably a centrifugal blower would be better as they, like turbos, don't puff until you stand on the gas. They are easier to drive "normally".

I like the centrifical but I dont think youll be disapointed w/ the screw either. Easy to install & inter-cool centris, good for street & even better for 1/4 mile (centri makes the power higher in rpms where you want it on track). Im getting 20-22 mpg w/ mine. I like the look of the twin screw a tad better tho. If I had to do it again & had 2x the $$$ I'd do turbo.

I am sure I will like either one. I was leaning on a centri since I have a 4.10's. If it came down to looks, I like the centri better.

I think the Base model Vortech would be a good choice for a DD with 4.10's

I've had good luck with the Paxton. Drives normal until you get into it a bit.
