Default Which supercharger for a 4wd 5.3 Tahoe?

I rarely tow with this truck and it already has 40000 miles. Im looking for something I can bolt on in my driveway and be able to return the vehicle back to stock if needed. I dont want any drivability/reliability issues.
Thanks

Get a Whipple or some type of roots style blower if your looking to do it yourself.

I favor the Magnacharger Radix. Gives you a really good low end kick

The Radix kit has been very popular. It provides boost just off idle and gains have been in the 130-150hp range. The ATI is also a good system but boost doesn't become noticeable until about 2500-3000 RPMs. It is about $1500. less than the Radix though.
