Power adders as in just blower, supercharger, turbos, and nitrous? Or all power adders?
Cant go wrong with a Comp Cam. Far as heads, intake and carb goes...I personally like Edelbrock. Headers...Hooker or Flowtech are nice. MSD for Ignition. Alot of good piston choices out there also, Jet, K.B....
If it was a all out drag car id go with a Holley Demon carb...but in my opinion Edelbrock is the best for street/strip use.
Never bought any type of supercharger, turbocharger, blower, or nitrous....so I can say what brands are the best to me.....but id go with a blower. Just like to see it sticking out the hood....let people know not to mess with you. ;D

id be stuck inbetween turbos and a blower. w/ a blower it looks bad ass. and gets you to put duell carbs and what not. but w/ turbos your more of a sleeper. as long as you dont have this huge blow off valve that sounds like you have a rocket shooting off in your car. so you can have it set at O.. 15 lbs. pull up beside that dude. w/ there lil 9 ld.er blower. he thinks hes got you cause you got tha oil lubricated ball barings and quiet blow off valve lookin like you are all show n no go. he takes off you let tha lil turbo lag go away and fly off lika rocket. now a blower is kick ass and so is turbos and s/c and what not. so thats why id be tore inbetween mostly all O em

I understand what your saying about the sleeper thing...but if you dump an ass load of money into a engine....why hide it? Show that big ass blower sticking out the hood...let them know ahead of time not to mess with you.

tru. but still. you pull up to a big ass car you got you sleeper tt's on. you both hit tha gass he takes a lead till tha turbo lag wears off. then you are going 10x as fast past his ass. then he will follow you around till you stop and be like "dude wtf you got under there. i was for shure i had your ass" so all n all you show off what you got.
its tha suprise of atack.. you make money off of it racing.

As far as your car is Supernova, I'd prefer a blower on her. I understand what 'Stang is talking about though, the turbo's would make it much more suttle looking than having a huge chunk of metal sticking out the hood..
The only "power booster" I really hate is Nitrous. I just hate it, its too easy for someone to hook up a 100 shot or whatnot. Fake horsepower, I just hate it.

Well how about this, a "sleeper" car with a TT setup pulls next to a 69 Camaro with a 572 and a big ass blower sticking out the hood.
Sleeper vs Already knowing

ok. so you have that camaro who sais tha other car isnt pushing more hp or have some big ass like.. 600bb under tha hood pushing a ass of boost. + has a smoother body w/ out tha blower sticking out so its more dynamic and sleek so it has more down force. and can glide smoother

Well, here's a good example of a sleeper.
Have you guys seen that 1962 Chevy Biscayne with the 400 and TT? Yeah, try 1200 horsepower and something like 1150 ft/lbs. of torque, all under the hood. Now that's what I call a freaking sleeper.

lol Hell yeah! I've got the poster of it on my wall. There's only 1 import on my wall and its a CRX with a Black Widow body kit. lol, I might own a Honda but I really love Domestics. I have mostly Fords and Chevy's in there, and one or two Mopars.

I think if a 600 + CID bb with TT setup pulled next to me...I could tell he had something under the hood even if it didnt have a blower sticking out the hood.

That 1,200hp car goes from like 60 - 120 in under 2 seconds...not to mention the 0-60 times.
