Sorry to bea dick, but the search feature on this site can be your friend, lol.

I prefer the Kenne Bell kits myself. Vortech and Procharger also make wonderful kits. I ahve heard to stay away form Powerdyne though. I hear that they dont last long at all. Good Luck man.

You will prolly see a 40-45% gain in hp. hp gains will differ depending on what supporting mods you have, if its cooled, and how much boost you are running. The stock block can handle about 8 psi, I belive. Correct me of I'm wrong.

Umm broad question but...price can be btween 3000-6000 not installed. Gains depends on what boost you run... OMre your engines built the more boost you can run safely.

There are two types of supers twin screw and centrifugal
twin screw = full boost at 2000 rpms
centrifugal = full foost at like 5000 rpms

its all personal preference... the best twin screw is probably or atleast in my opinion Kenne Bell... the best centrifugal is either Vortech or Ati Procharger

I always like to try Ebay. They normally have brand new full kits. People use the Ebay Store, so you usually know that it will be good quality. A lot of companies sell through ebay. I will try to find some more websites and post them.

which one would run best in the 1/4 mile?

just for the record, i don't know anything about boost, or nothing. I dont even know how it all works, sorry to admit it, but owell. I just know that a kid in my town has one, and it's siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick. I mean like 2nd gear roastin them like no other. It looks like a brake stand.

If your on any sort of a budget centrifgual is clearly the way.

I have seen stock blocks fine at 12 PSI intercooled, and I am running 10 PSI with no intercooler and no isses. The most important thing is how much RWHP it is making, and how good the tune is.

I paid right at 3900 bucks shipped for my setup, everything I needed other than a few tools.

hmmmm, I'm not positive which will give the best 1/4 mile times. They will prolly all give you abouyt the same. I just love those KB's though. They sound so sick and they look awesome when you open your hood. (Especially if you have a polished one).
