Supercharger.....anyone?

I'm looking to purchase a new motorhome. I've decided to get one with the V-10 over the GM 8100. I am looking for some input as to the best quality supercharger to maximize my performance. I know there are several makes, but I'm not sure which one is better than the other. Many thanks.

I would make the decision based on who actually makes one to fit in the van chassis.

Is it an F53 chassis? Or E-series?

The F53 has the 3-valve, I believe the E-series does not.

Was watching RVToday on OLN, and they tested a new Lazy Daze class C with the V10. They didn't say much about the V10, but they did say it was actually fun to drive because the V10 had more than ample power to move the motorhome along, even on good size grades. I think it was about 30 ft. or so can't remember or sure, but it was looooooooooong. I'm guessing it was a 3-valve.
