pettit or hymee?

Hello,fellow rx8 owners,please forgive me if this has been answered already as this is my first post and wanted to get information from the source available.Last year I purchased a 05 rx8 from an elderly gentlemen who kept the car in prestine shape,all service and mainianence records and such and have now saved up to go FI,after doing a little research on my own I am still undecided on wich kit to get,from what I under stand both pettit and hymee use twinscrew s/c except pettit uses a lysholm and hymee uses an autorotor,is there any up or down side to each,also I've read that pettits blower is to small to make any reall power,and the one thing that disturbs me about the hymee kit is the way the blower is positioned,backwards and having to use what the call a layshaft I believe,just seems like a problem waiting to happen.as you can tell I'm fairly new to FI so any help would be greatly apreciated,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,love my 8 :-)
