You need to do a lot of research before you "get one". Supercharging a car isn't the same as getting a cold air induction kit.

there are pros and cons to all. They also vary on what you want them to do. You need to be specific with what you want to do before it can be determined what SC you need.

What type of power are you looking for?

PD superchargers give instant torque and are IMHO more fun on a street car.

Centri blowers are strong in the mid to higher rpm range. They all offer power just different in delivery.

There are about four choices in PD blowers:

TVS 2300
Whipple
Kenny bell
Lysholm

The 2300 and whipple being the most popular.

They both make similar power..despite what the whipple fanboys will say. I have an "upgraded" 2300. The whipple maybe be capable of 850+ rwhp vs the TVS 800 RWHP. If you don't plan on going that crazy then TVS and call it a day.

If you want a PD blower I say get a Whipple otherwise I prefer centri's and preferably Procharger.
