Ok im very close to either buy the trick flow twisted wedge kit or...a blowzilla..Which is alot more money but might be very fun to have. My car is mainly a daily driver/street car that will see the track maybe a few times a year. Im look for something with alot of torque..like the KB..which has more under the curve HP and torque..im really torn between the 2... Although the KB is about a grand more..might be worth it. Give me your opinions
Thanks

ps i did a compression test and all the cylinders are around 150psi..is that good enough for the blower?

I look at it like this. If you get the blower now, when you do get around to H/C/I you will be able to go bigger due to already having a blower.

If I could go back in time when I first got my car I would just start saving for a turbo system.

go with the trickflow kit .... I have a supercharged car (2002 Gt) and a HCI 5.0 trust me , for what its worth , I have several reasons , but I think you will be happier with the HCI over the blower ......PM me if you have any questions ...

If you have access to a good tuner in your area get the KB...but it will cost more with the tune/chip plus all the little things you will need to upgrade with it.

The h/c/i you can tune yourself easily and get the same power and still be all motor

Both will be nice either way...

If you have the money get the KB. If not go with the h/c/i.
No matter what way you go, you will have lots of fun.

I would say the H/C/I first but only because I went the other way and did blower first and had to move alot of stuff out of the way to do heads and cam. That means less work later for just a blower install.
