both the KB and procharger are great blowers. the KB will have a lot down low. i have no problems keeping up with KB cars with my procharger setup.

GTSilver · November 14th, 2006, 12:25 PM

howa bout the installation for one of those....is it hard...can i do it...ive got some under the hood experience

HMUSN · November 14th, 2006, 03:18 PM

i would go with the 2.6KB i don't think they make the 2.2 anymore.
and it's not too hard to install if you know what you are doing.
then again i never have

both are great set ups. k/b will be a little stronger on the bottom end but the ati will be stronger on top. its not going to be night and day difference but there is a little. the procharger is a little more simple for the install if that is what your looking for.

KB is going to be a torque monster down low in powerband...They no longer make the 1.7...It was replaced with the 2.1...I am pretty sure they still make the 2.2 though as well...Not 100% on the 2.2 though...

The procharger is going to give you more mid-range to the top of your rpm band...

It is really dependent on what you want to do with your car...

kb's cost more but imo make a better power curve for stock motors. centri's are good when it comes to a built motor cause they perform better once they are able to turn alot of rpm's.
