I have my own personal reasons but I don't like centrifugal blowers. There are much better options for the money out there IMO.

But it all depends on your goals.

IMO, if ur goin the supercharger route, its pointless to get a centrifugal, u might as well get a turbo. get a KB, the high volume low end power will be there. lovely scream up top, too

Only eatons for these cars are magnacharger (glorified eaton), and the roushcharger..... I would go KB or saleen over those two anyday!

My advice is listen to people that have s/c's or another form of forced induction already. Since you are looking for low end power a centrifugal like a Procharger isn't going to do it. My suggestion for a twin screw would be the KB (or the Saleen if you never want to make over 500rwhp), now if you want the absolute best of both worlds something that will scream on the top end and make more torque down low than you can ever use then I would suggest a turbo. Anyone that says turbo lag is a problem on these cars is uninformed.

I personally recommend the Saleen Supercharger. I dont care too much for centrifugal blowers myself either. Save a little more money and get blown the right way
