All depends on what you want to do with the truck. For the money the magnacharger is the way to go. Most complete kit and easy to install but they cost more. Trick Performance makes a badass turbo kit, I'll be going this route once the warranty is up and I have the loot for a built transmission (which you'll have to replace at some point as well). A low boost supercharger kit is very reliable and should serve you well with few issues, they seem to break more stuff once you get to the 500whp mark but run plenty fast with about 400.

You'll rather have a supercharger connected to a IC to get an intake temp of about 15 Degrees celcius?
My 2000 got an early generation of whipple.
Worked for over seven years.
And YES, it works very well.

Absolutely!

Whipples frequently see intake temps over 200F. You are not making nearly as much power at that temperature.
