Look up all the S/C's on the net (check the manufacturing web sites for each model) and narrow your wants down again and give us an explanation as to what you would like to achieve with your car now and in the future....(what howarmat posted above) ^^^

KENNE BELL!!!!
Check This Out. A 450RWHP twinscrew supercharger with instant boost compared to a 460RWHP Centri; the twinscrew will feel much better and will win the drag every time! You will have peak boost right away where as the centri will have to spool up. Centris don't make peak horsepower until about 6500 rpms.

Let me ask you this. Where do you do most of you driving? Between 2,000-6,000 rpm's or at 6,500 + rpm's?

Do you have a twin screw? Where do you get off making all these claims? Centris to peak later in the rpms but I have never witnessed twin screws beat every single centri.... Twin screws will pull at lower rpms but the centri will reel them in. In not saying either it better but just lay off with the claims. Unless you have acutal proof...

I Have a Kenne Bell in the box waiting to be installed. Pound for pound; a twinscrew is both better and funer to drive. Obviously a centri running a lot of boost would beat a low boosted twin screw. There is also a lot of other factos i.e. supporting mods.

I am in no way trying to argue. I'm just saying, A supercharger that makes instant power will be better and funner than a supercharger that doesn't...

Pound for pound and centri makes more HP with an equal tune. Also what you think is funer to drive someone else (me) may not agree. I have driven both twin scew and centri so I can make my decision. I love twin screws as well, Im not an any way trying to discredit them. There are great and very fun. However from my personal experience I prefer Centris and that is why I purchased mine. Once again I have yet to see all centris lose to twin screws with equal boost. (Not trying to argue or start anything either just stating what I have witnessed in my life) Have fun with that Kenne Bell and hurry and itstall that bad boy.
