What Supercharger kit to buy? VT2-650, G1+ kit, G2 kit, or AA Gen 2 Lvl 3?

Hey Guys,

I have a 2009 e92 m3 with full bolt ons and I am looking to get a supercharger kit but don't know exactly which one to get. Trying to decided between a ESS VT2-650, a G1+ kit, a G2 kit, or an Active Autowerke Generation 2 Level 3 kit. (Are VF supercharger kits even worth considering? I Don't know much about them.)

Is the VT2-650 really worth the extra $3000 for just 25 more hp? I assume the 650 is much better at cooling and whatnot vs the 625 which would be perfect for me. I track my car regularly and need good cooling, will the VT2-625 or 650 provide enough cooling for a long hot track day?

Anybody have recommendations or experience with these non VT2 kits? I might go for a methanol kit but I'm not sure if the extra power is worth the increased wear and tear on the car. Plus I would still like to daily drive it in the summer, Will supercharging it with a G1+ or G2 or AA Gen 2 Lvl 3 Kit make it a pain in the ass to daily drive? I have heard from others with ESS 625 kits say they still daily their cars regularly.

Any input, experiences, recommendations and thoughts are much appreciated!

Thanks,
Derek
