Default super chargers!

i was thinking about going with the kenne bell blowzilla system because i like twin screws but is it really worth the extra money? This is just a weekend cruiser not a drag car so would it be better for me to spend all the money on a kenne bell or just go with a centrifigul sc for cheaper?

best s/c for a daily driven car... period I dont care what anybody thinks... you give up maybe 10hp over 5k rpm on a typical setyp but you pickup often times 100+ hp over a vortech at 3k rpm... not bad! But... cost is a MAJOR issue as a KB kit is considerably more costly.. about the same cost as a turbo system

What rpm range are you looking for out of this S/C? The twin screw supercharger will stomp the centrifugal from 0 to 3500rpm & still pull pretty hard from 4000 to 7000rpm. The centrifugal would be better if you are wanting higher rpm power, 4000+rpm.
