It really comes down to personal preference and what you want to spend as everyone (including myself), will recommend the one they are running. You can't go wrong with any of the major brands including Saleen, Vortec/Pro-charger, Edelbrock, Kenne Bell, etc.
So as another point of reference, here's the E-force

EDITED
Whipple, Edelbrock, Kenne Bell for instant torque and screaming at WOT.
Procharger or Vortech for not so instant torque but good HP.
Procharger loud at idle.

Not as well known as some of the other brands , but I like my MagaCharger. Last dyno tune I got 460 RWHP / 440 RWTQ running a 3.0" pulley at 8.5 - 9.0 psi depending on air temp ...

Everyone will plug the blower they own, but the truth is that all the blower kits on the market are great. All can be dialed up to make more power than the stock short block can handle.
For my 07 GT & my limited budget, I went with a basic Vortech V2 S-trim (non-intercooled) - satin finish instead of polished. With just 4.10 gears, stall converter, and drag radials, it went 11.79 @ 114 in the 1/4 mile.....

And yes at idle they are quiet. But you will always have the scream at wot. And if it was supercharged why wouldnt you wanna open it up. Lol
And the procharger just sounds like **** until its opened up.
As far as torque, roots and twin screw have ZERO build up. Everything is instant, therefore better for street car applications. Procharger will produce the bulk of their power above 2500 rpm.

"And the procharger just sounds like **** until its opened up." I love it.
" if it was supercharged why wouldnt you wanna open it up. Lol" are you saying my car isn't Procharged?
If you ever come to Houston look me up and I'll take you for a ride and change your mind
