Pro- Charger, you dont need that constant torque through out the RPMs plus Centrifugal Chargers tend to run cooler temps where as a roots puts out more heat and harder to extract due to the posistion on top of the engine! Pro Chargers make tons of HP at different boost Levels! Just my .02
KB is not a roots just FYI.

Centri style FTW. cheaper, just as much/more power, and easyer to launch.
+1, Is it just me or are there more centri cars going faster with less power than KB cars? I mean isn't one of the fastest bullits in the world a 520rwhp bullit? from what I have read it seems like it takes alot more power from a KB to run that kind of time. (i have ridden in both, so Im not just presuming)

I didn't say this before, but if you go centri, Go paxton Novi 2000, beause once you get hungry for more boost, that thing will seriously feed your needs

Centri FTW! KB makes so much torque at such low rpms that it's harder to launch without spinning like crazy, it's harder on your tranny and rear end especially if your running slicks, and they cost more.

If you are looking into a centri, take a peek at the new novi2200.

+1, why drill unnecessary oil lines? Thats one of the biggest reasons I went with Procharger.
