Default Saleen blower vs others

so what do people think about the saleen blower? i've heard you can get more hp from it by just gettin a diff pulley and you can do other things too.. but what about whipple and vortech and kenne bell? i know you can do the same thing, but which gets the best hp without having to do that, and which is best costwise? also whats the difference between the roots/twin screw and the centrifugal? how do i know what to get? are they the same price range? i'm not lookin for a beastly race/track car.. i'm just lookin for the mid 4-5xx hp range.. its my daily driver so i'd like it to get somewhat good mileage too (of course not lookin for like 25-30 mpg) unless possible with all that power... i'm probably not going to get one too soon, lookin to get a body kit first.. depends if i can sell my other car for a good amount, and its up to my dad too.. thanks for the help in advance

if you do a search for superchargers or search the brand name you will get alot of info. i will help with some questions.
i love the saleen but i also have one. they all will make 400rwhp plus. vortech may be the cheapest. the twin screw will make make boost at a lower rpm then the centrifugal which builds boost. the "general" rule is the twin is good on the street because you get higher boost at lower rpms and the centtrifugal is good for the track. either one will be fun to drive. as long as you don't run the car hard you will get about the same gas mileage.

What part of the power band are you looking to improve? That will tell you what style of blower you want to look into.

Id say do some searching and some research and come back with some questions that you couldnt find answers to. it really depends on what kind of power you want and where and what you use the car for and how you use it. Overall the Saleen kit is great, I love mine and wouldnt trade it for any others. Ease of install, toned down looks and the down low power band make it my favourite

I have a KB and I love it, but I wouldn't mind having the Saleen blower. It all depends on application, what you want andhow much you want to spend.
