I'm looking into a supercharger and i found that i personally like a twin screw, roots type supercharger alot more than a centrifugal because of the almost immediate boost and torque (i decided this especially after driving a F150 lightning compared to a Roush F150 both with 5.4L's, the lightning's boost was IMMEDIATE).

Anyways, who makes them anymore. I can't find a good web site for Kenne Bell, and and really like the idea of having a roots type supercharger, especially since it takes the place of the lower intake manifold. Can anyone please lead me in the right direction towards finding one.
Thank you,
Rick
