What do you consider as being "best"? Price? Performance? HP gains? TQ gains? Sound? Most streetable? Which of these is most important to you?

Whipples IF you are a dyno queen, any other if you want performance.

Man this is a vague question. Since you are saying "for the money" I would assume price is a consideration? My Vortech puts down a little over 400rwhp and was $3899 from Brenspeed. It definitely wins the "bang-for-the-buck" award I think. It is centrifugal though, which some people don't like. Brenspeed also sells a Paxton HO for $4995 that I think is a great deal for an HO kit. You can get a Procharger for not all that much more.

There are lots of choices out there, and pretty much all of the ones that have been around a while are good kits. There are some nice twin screws on the market: Saleen, Kenne Bell, Whipple. All of them are pushing 6k+ I believe.

My vote goes to Procharger. I've got one on my other car, and about to order another for my GT. Best sounding supercharger IMO only second to KB. Great performance as well.
