Agreed, if two or three systems meet your needs then take account which looks better. But a lot of people buy them just for looks, without taking performance into account. They just want something for a car show. Now if you want 500hp and both choices will get you there, then hell yes buy what you think looks prettier. If you want a blower just to pop the hood and show off, that just isn't my thing. I guess it would be like putting chrome 22-24" wheels on the car. To each their own but it seems silly to me.

I cant see buying it for looks.... I could care less how the old one looks and the new one looks.... I want more development!
They are all good choices but become quite different as you approach 700 hp. |

This is a matter of opinion. Like anything else we put on our cars.

It does look pretty clean. But also does not look like it has a superchatger at all.

I agree. I don't like their covers (old or new style) so I went ahead and made my own.

I look on there website and it does look like you can retrofit the Edelbrock with the EForce manifold top and the coil covers part #41144.

I like the new look, but I hate the concept of traping the heat in.
The cover looks great at the car shows, but Id leave it in the trunk till I got there. Phil |
