I, personally, would go with the Paxton. Then again, i'm biased towards the CS6 parts/ Shelby name. Not to change the topic, but has anyone heard anything new about the Turbonetics kit?

To the OP what do you want do with your car goal wise? Either will be a nice upgrade. If you are looking for instant torque and killer scream the X will fill the bill. If you want to maximize your ETs and track the car at the 1320. I say the centuri with enough gear to maximize the potential. So you have to ask what do you want out of the car? Good luck with your future mods.

Yep it's an eaton 2.3 roots blower same as in the Roushcharger, but I don't feel like going back and editing all the names.

I'd like to also point out the X-charger is the popular choice both by appreciation in various circles and in number of purchases and I'll just repeat the part about the the CS6 builders which I'll add used paxton due to all shelby's being paxton supercharged exclusive since the first mustang. They were deeply impressed with the system's results

Also I'm ignoring Rygen's post no offense.

Well, the Shelby folks said they would consider the X for future projects.

Btw, y'all know that Steeda sells the X and uses it in their QS6, right?

Do you care what your car will sound like with FI? If you do go X-Charger; centri's sound like, well, not like this:
