This is really a loaded question you are asking..as there will never be one true or best answer. My opinion is simple...if you have an automatic go for the roots style charger. If you have a manual go for the centrifugal charger. You cannot go wrong with any of them, just please do not waste your time, nor money on those electric ones.

I have the Vortech S-Trim...and it screams at idle just as it screams at WOT. I have friends that had Vortech's, Novi's, as well as Powerdyne. I have two buddies that have the 03 Cobra. Some of my friends are just about equal in the horsepower numbers...and the rest have the capabilities of having the same.

Bottomline...set a horsepower number that you want. Ensure you have the motor that can handle that number. Choose a supercharger with a good reputation. Ensure a good installation, as well as tune. Lastly, remember that just because you do all of what I just mentioned...it doesnt mean that it will last forever. You are shoving not only large amounts of air into your motor, but gobs of fuel as well. Alot more wear and tear on the motor. They say it is like lighting a fuse to a bomb...to make the fuse as long as possible will depend on the tune.

Good Luck and Happy New Year!
