What is going to be your main purpose of your car street or street/strip?
You gotta first ask yourself what you want the car for,then decide on the particular blower that will suite You, not what john doe says is the best one to buy.

For example:
A kenne Bell equipped car would be killer on the street as they make peak boost @2000 rpm and a ton of torque.You could walk right away from a centrifical blower(Vortech,Paxton,etc) driving on the street because it takes them much longer in the rpm range to get the boost built up.

Just a note about Procharger set-ups.
alot of people have had problems with brackets,resulting in stripped,broken belts.There is a new version of this bracket(P600b bracket-new version)that will eliminate this.

It's a 2 piece billet made bracket which is very much like the one used on the 86-93 D1 blowers.Make sure you are aware of this if you decide to go with this blower.

Me, I went with a Paxton GSS blower.It's a upgraded ball-drive blower basically.Why did I choose this? Because I wanted to be different and show people that you can make these old style blowers run hard.

Take your time in what you decide to buy,it's your money.
