So im looking at the kenne bell 2.1L or the 2.6L not sure and also the vortech V3.... i have a 2003 mustang gt 5 speed. When i get the sc i will have a built bottom end so thats no problem.

I would like to make the most power out of what i buy.. which one do you guys think is better for the money and how much power i will get... and i will be buying them new thanks.

:rolleyes: Not really helpful, because there is no such thing as a "best" blower. You have to take into consideration multiple things such as cost, mid+ range power, low end torque, and easy or cost of installation to name some things. Now there are some blowers that are more efficient than others in their own class such as an eaton vs. a Kenne Bell.

To the OP what are your goals such as power output and where do you want that power to come on? Answering that and some of the points above will help you decide. For instance if you want mid+ range power look to a turbo (I know it's not a blower) or a centrifugal blower with something you can grow with such as a Vortech T-trim, Procharger D1 or F1, or a Paxton Novi 2000. If you want low end torque look at a Kenne Bell 2.1 or bigger or a Whipple. I only have personal experience with a Vortech SQ-Trim that was on a stock bottom end. I have rode in a built GT w/ a Kenne Bell 1.7 and to be honest both are equally fun. I hope this helps in your quest for boost, unlike the smart @$$ comments mentioned above.

the power you want to make is only measured buy how much money you have and how much money you want to spend...if you only want 500 rwhp..no reason to go all out with a huge blower and spend 6k on it..because more power comes more fuel,more suspension,more **** that will break..

I say get a centri but I advise you to take a look at a few of these threads on supercharger comparisons for the sake of knowledge too.

id say get a centri for a GT. i am all for a twin screw (hell i own an 04 cobra) but on a mustang gt as far as efficiency and all that goes id say its in your best interest to go centri. probobly a vortech or procharger IMO but its all in your preference too. if you want instant boost get a twin screw. if you want more top end boost get a centri. either way your power is gonna be there
