Exactly what are you basing this on?
After having done the research, what I found was the only way they are "superior" is they spend alot more of your money, and they make alot more torque down low, while sacrificing power up top....

If you want a superior supercharger then get a Kenne Bell.
I would kill for one. Seriously....

I own 1999 Ford Mustang GT. I was wondering what everyone thought about superchargers. I was wondering what mods to do prior to adding a supercharger and what brand of sc i should get.

I would save the extra grand and buy a vortech or procharger kit. I'm seriously considering buying a charger this winter. Nitrous is awesome when the bottle's full, I hate not having the power all the time, it's just not as fun.

+1. I'm with 2000GT4.6, so long as he doesn't throw me overboard. Everybody sucks KB dick because they put out crazy hp down low. I hope you can get traction with that power. I can drive 40 mph in 2nd gear and will spin my tires like crazy @ 40 mph 3,000 rpm in 2nd.

I went with the vortech because the car is simply faster in a drag race, and it was far cheaper. My vortech + all my boltons and cams cost less than what the KB kit from MPH was going to cost... Simply no comparason.

yes as far from mph - hell no - they are way high in price!
hey 2000 - what do you think about twin screw vs procharger vs vortech as far as 1/4 times go? - we have had a general consensus that twin screw makes better times - bc it makes almost full power from 2k-6k as to where the centris dont start make full power untill about 3500... I'd like you to look at the new 2.2 dynos and see those power and torque curves - I used to be all about prochargers but now I am a chnaged man... these new twins use alot less power... but like you said the vortech and procharger are going to be the price winners no question... I mean all of these systems with same mods and power levels are within 3 10ths of eachother
