Considered it all up until I saw how much it was! $$$$$$

It's less costly to either build a turbo setup or go with a procharger or vortech. IMO

yes, that's what a couple members are using at this time.

Roots and screw superchargers are generally more efficient than centrifugal superchargers.

$5000+? You could change the whole engine to a built domestic V8 for less than that!

...Not that i would, i'm just saying, thats steep!
