Well KB for our 5.0's are not intercooled.
Very ****ty...
If your goal is a fun street car, or a car that loves the twisties, definatly go with the twin screw.
If you're building a drag car or just want some rediculously stupid power numbers, go turbo.
Cheaper of the two is the Kenne Bell, and it will also "feel" faster

Well, i have a stock 5.0 and i was wondering what would be better for street use of the 2? I heard turbos are more efficient, but for some reason the KB appeals to me. These are both around the same price neighborhood too if im not mistaken, right?
the turbo will make more power with the same boost. and the myths about turbo lag are mostly BS. the reason most people have turbo lag is the turbos are too big. with the right turbos you can have full boost at around 1500-2000 RPMs

Get what YOU want. It's YOUR car. Turbo's are more efficient and have a higher capability. BUT that may not be a concern of yours. Buy what YOU want. YOUR the one that gotta drive the car. Some people like S/C over turbos. Some like turbos better. Buy what YOU think YOU'LL like best.

**Yes, the emphasization was on purpose.**

Before I got the turbo I wanted the Kenne Bell. Kenne Bell in my opinion is the best S/C out, aside from Whipple (but they don't make anything for the 5.0.)
