Question Blower Set Up

I want to run a blower set up on my 89 GT but im pretty sold on a twin screw system but the only one i can find is the kenne bell blowzilla. i didn't know if there was any other companies that made one, or in a centrifugal blower is better? I just dont want a bunch of plumbing!! so any help of advice you guys could come up with would be great!! sorry if this thread should be put in tech i wasn't for sure where to post it!!

Procharger FTW! But you don't want to fool w/ piping and they are usually intercooled. If you don't want the hassle, find another hobby cause this one is full of headaches.

S-trim is probably what you would want

they made an instacharger a long time ago...I can't remember if it was roots or a whipple style...They may still make the things...

But yeah, the kenne bells are pretty simple

One day I am going to get 500lbs of torque out of this one...I was content leaving the stock heads on but, I saw this commercial about the new SHO Taurus tonight. 365 HP form a Taurus!!! I won't be had by a Sedan
