For me it was Saleen, you are going to get many different answers here, read the feed back you are going to get and than decide what is best for you. There will not be a BAD supercharger just have to choose what is good for you.

For a motor with the stock bottom end, the Saleen, Whipple and KB are all good choices because you'll likely not exceed 10psi boost. If you decide to build the motor and crank the boost higher, then other factors come into play.

Depends on what you want to do with it. If your goal is mid 400's then the Saleen, Magnacharger, etc will work great.

I picked the KB because when I do the bottom end of the motor I plan on crankin' up the boost and going for 600hp. The KB can be cranked up to that kind of power no problem, some of the other blowers are tapped at about 450hp. Of course the KB costs more,. If you are not planning on going over 450 then you don't need to spend the extra money.

Like I said, what is your goal?
