I used to have a Paxton, it's not too bad to get setup. I'd stick with Paxton, Vortech or Procharger. www.rtmods.com has a nice Vortech kit. You'll want to upgrade your headgaskets and get a wideband so you can keep an eye on your a/f.

There's 5 different name brand superchargers for the Dakota R/T, but none of them are the style that you showed in the picture where the blower replaces the intake manifold... 4 of them (ATI/Powerdyne/Vortech/Paxton) have head units that sit in the front/passenger side of the truck, and 1 (Kenne Bell) that sits above & to the side of the engine.

The dual supercharger truck isn't a Magnum V8 anymore, and that guy wasted a fortune to rebuild that truck over and over again.
