Ok, ive been reading some articles concerning these S/C kits and they are all roughly the same cost, and just looking for some feedback on which kit is best. Also with regards to future mods like headers and exhaust and cam swaps and tuning is there any advantage with one kit or another? Of the 3 i like the edelbrock kit, the LS9 may provide the most power out of the box, but since you have to switch to the matching accessory drive its alot more expensive.
Share your thoughts.

We are looking to do some blower testing on the engine dyno in the very near future. We have a few of them already here including the Maggie and Whipple!

I originally said Procharger because that's what the shop I used recommended, but after doing a month of research I'm changing my choice to the Whipple. I don't have anything bad to say about the Procharger but for what I'm going to do (street racing) I think the Whipple would be better.
From what I've read and been told by the people I've talked to, the Maggie is a hard core street racing supercharger. I just didn't like the belt set up in the back driving the opposite screw. I work with 7 150hp Ingersoll Rand air compressors and couldn't imagine a belt turning the driven screw. Maybe I'm wrong about the supercharger application for this, but I have to think the screws must slam into each other a little when you let up on the throttle after WOT just from the belt tension-er picking up the slack.
If anyone has first hand working experience with the Maggie I would like to hear it. I'm still a month away from getting an install and would take real world experience or my theories any day.

I think whipple`s belt setup for the rear is the same, on the maggie you can overdrive the rear with a cogged belt for more boost

Just my opinion.
The TVS can make big power,but it needs to spin very fast which leads to alot of heat and needs some upgrades to keep it under control.
Jannety Racing has a couple of upgrades for the TVS.

It would depends on your HP goal.
For a late model Camaro,any of the popular PD blowers out there will work great at 600HP.But if you want to push it at 700HP. The whipple would get you there cheaper $$$$$ and less heat issues compare to the TVS.
I have a TVS in my truck and love it.But for my Camaro I'm leaning towards the Whipple for a PD setup or may go centri style.Still up in the air......
As far as I know,only the TVS has a rear belt driven setup that can be upgraded as a overdrived or cog drive.The whipple is an enclosed gear setup for the rear.
