Superchargers


Which kind is better, like between roots style supercharges and centrifugal style superchargers?

Roots will give you instant torque at low end rpm and the centri will give power as the rpm winds up. Read the sticky above. It will answer your question more thoroughly.

Dont waste your time on a roots...

Centri or Twinscrew

Me personally I would go with a KB (Twinscrew) or a Novi2000 (Centri)

Your car looks to be a V6...In that case i would go with a procharger set-up...

Kit comes very complete...Nice intercooler...

Vortech is great but if someone wants to just buy a kit and be done with it then the procharger is a better kit...VOrtech is great for buying a tuner kit and building off of it...
