You want low end to mid range power, pick the Saleen. You want midrange to high end, pick the Paxton. Both are going to be reliable.

Centrifugals are like turbos, they make good midrange-top end power. Roots & twin screws (Whipple) make good bottom end-midrange power. I think if you get reading through this forum though, you will find that a turbo will make more power than a s/c.

One thing to consider. If you get the saleen, I think you need a high domed hood to fit it under. I know the s/c saleen cars have a higher hood and I think I read somewhere that it was necessary to clear the s/c . Correct me if I'm wrong but I'd make sure before ordering one.

a saleen supercharger will fit under a stock hood, I have seen one in person. Note this, a saleen supercharger doesn't come with the cold air intake so you will have to buy that which is around $350 unless it is noted that it comes with the package.

Me personally, I like cars that get off the line hard and really set you in your seat. But I have a turbo though because of the way my car was setup I could not run a twin screw blower like I wanted to...
If you really want something for top end power, get a turbo kit instead of a centri. Turbo's dont cause drag on the motor.

the saleen blowers WILL fit under stock hoods, however, the need of a drop of 1"inch with billet motor mounts may be necessary in order to accomplish this.

If you go with the Saleen blower you should buy the Steeda high flow inlet pipe. It will let the blower breathe better and if it were me I'd go with the Saleen because I like the twin screw blowers better than the centris.
