lb for lb they'll all give you about the same peak power, just at different points in the rpm range. Base on your last question, I suggest you do some research on the different styles, narrow your choices down to 2 or 3 and them come back and ask for more specific opinions.

Whipple is a root style-replaces the intake manifold
Pro charger is a centrifugal- turbo style but belt driven

whipple is actually twin-screw, not roots.

both are "positive displacement" blowers.

here is the link to the forum I started back in the beginning of July
https://mustangforums.com/m_3507492/...tm.htm#3507492

I went withe the saleen but the KB is a very good SC. The reason I went withe the Saleen SC, is that it is more effient but if you want to run more than 15psi of boost at some point the KB will do that, but the Saleen won't.
