would like some thoughts about superchargers on the market

I'm thinking about installing a supercharger into my '05 goat. I've been searching around at some of the manufacturers, but I would like some feedback from some of you that might have already installed one. I'm not leaning towards any specific model, so could anyone help me out? thanks

Terrific! the Procharger and the Magnuson were the two superchargers i found and liked the best. Im guessing that those are the most popular and reliable ones on the market? ... hopefully. To answer the price question, when i looked a few days ago, I saw the Procharger at roughly $5300 and the Mag around $6800... + or - $100, cant remember exactly. Right now, im leaning towards the Procharger, cause of the price. Are you able to raise or lower the amount of boost for the Magnuson? because im also concerned about the longevity of the engine.

P.s. thanks for the quick responses so far

MAGGIE!!!
A MagnaCharger is one of those dream-parts for me, but being enlisted military this dream may never come to fruition. But if I could, this would be the one i'd go for.
