I have the new S-trim quite version and it's great, dyno numbers next week. My decision was based on effieciency and reliability. Paxton Novi was 2nd choice. Powerdyne is coming out with gear driven unit pretty soon and Kruger has an ultra effiecient blower(there new so I was sceptical). I would'nt be worried about an intercooler unless your sitting in traffic for a while then decide to street race, or road racing. Around here (and probably everywhere else) Vortech is mainstream, distributers, tuners, & other racers. Plus availibilty of add-on parts: braces, pulleys, power pipes, etc. All made my decision clear. Kenne bell was never a thought, who wants all that power right off the bat, keeping the tires planted at all times is hard to do even with no blower plus you run out of steam on top end. If you want to be sitting their spinning tires (and buying them faster) while the other guy is gone, buy the bell. You would think you would want boost to come on linearly like a turbo putting you on the brink of traction the whole race. Oh yeh, gas mileage & engine wear, cruising aroung at 2000-2500 rpm's, gee full boost with bell & hardly any with centrifical. It's sounds like i'm putting them down, but it's whatever your situation or combination calls for. Good luck
