I'll try this here
I have been doing a lot of s/c research and I think I have it narrowed down. Everyone on here says go with the KB 1.7 if you can afford it. I, like most others on here, cannot afford it. My choice is going to be the Vortech kit from MPH. I know it is not intercooled, but I can get the kit, run it for a while, and then put an intercooler on there when I save the extra dough. 6 psi nonintercooled is better than 0 psi while waiting for the extra cash for an intercooler.
Anyway, running 9 psi on both kits (the KB 1.7 and the Vortech) with an intercooler on each, will there be a noticable difference between the two in the quarter mile? I plan to put 4.10's on the car since I am going with the Vortech and needed higher RPM's faster. Will 3.73's and a KB1.7 run much faster, if any, than a Vortech and 4.10's will all other factors being equal?

RE: I'll try this here
i would also recommend a intercooled procharger...especially if money is tight, but that's not what you asked. as a rule of thumb, centri sc's are faster in the quarter then roots/screw type but the almost instant boost and flat torque curve of the screw/roots can be more fun on the street (that's some peoples personal opinion). do you understand the differences between how a roots/screw sc works and a centri?
