Kenne Bell or ProCharger

87StangLX · September 17th, 2007, 08:37 PM

Now I know I already had a topic about nitrous, but instead I've decided to save my money and go supercharged. My only problem is that I don't know what kind to get: Centri or Roots. The mods I've done to my car so far are cold air intake, maf conversion, mac longtubes, mac o/r h pipe, flowtech stinger warlock cat backs (dumped), an am looking at a transgo shift kit pretty soon here.

Twin Screw ;-) Instant Power vs. Centri with a little lag. up to you. i say Procharger. the Twin Screws sound awesome though, if that counts for anything

ChrisJ · September 17th, 2007, 09:20 PM

I ahve to say if I had the choice and the money was not the option I would have a KB...

But they are both awesome...

ESG-642T · September 18th, 2007, 12:42 AM

I would say KB, and Vortech over procharger !

87StangLX · September 18th, 2007, 11:56 AM

well arent prochargers intercooled. i didnt think this option could come on a vortech. although i could be mistaken. plus i'm only lookin to spend like up to $3000 at the very most. i'm really jus lookin for somthing around $2500.

I think you just narrowed your search to a used Vortech or Procharger (if you're lucky).

87StangLX · September 18th, 2007, 05:08 PM

well, which would be better bang fo the buck then "if i get lucky"?

I would get Procharger. Their placement allows for easier IC application. IMO

Drgnracin72 · September 18th, 2007, 07:08 PM

def go with the centri blower, your running a higher compression and they work better with that. lus they make for an all around faster car.

87StangLX · September 19th, 2007, 04:54 PM

yea i been lookin into procharger and it says they got an internal oilin system which means no tappin in to the oil pan. but besides that what size should i go with? all i am lookin for is to make a REALLY fun street car.

ChrisJ · September 19th, 2007, 04:56 PM

A D1 would make it alot of fun...But in the $3K price range your going to be4 limited to the P1...Unless someone is really in need of cash and sells a D1 set-up for a large loss...

87StangLX · September 20th, 2007, 10:34 PM

how much does a D1 make boost an hp wise? cuz i been thinkin bout sellin my 93 f-150 for about 3500 to possibly 4k.

87StangLX · September 27th, 2007, 05:04 PM

what all comes in a P1SC kit? i know a 2 core intercooler comes, but what else?

MATT02GT · September 27th, 2007, 07:09 PM

I can complain about my #'s with just a P1SC. And Ive spanked a K.B. and a Vortech. Definatly go either Procharger or Kenne Bell. Personally I think Vortechs are junk. But thats just me

87StangLX · September 27th, 2007, 08:25 PM

so........

MATT02GT · September 28th, 2007, 12:58 PM

What comes with it depends on how much you wanna spend. I think the base kit does not include injectors or the MAF. I paid $4,600 for mine but I upgraded to a 3 core intercooler, 42lb injectors, 90mm MAF, Bigger 300lph fuel pump, and I got the polished blower.

87StangLX · September 30th, 2007, 02:13 PM

what is better for an almost daily driver though?

forensicsteve · October 1st, 2007, 08:46 AM

I had a P1SC Procharger for 12 months. No issues at all with the unit. I bought the extended 3 year waranty for $49. Once the s/c was putting out 480+ rwhp, it ran lean on fuel, so put 60 lbs injectors and the GT500 dual pumps. Fuel problem solved.

As a daily the centri worked great for me. Went on an 800 miles road trip and returned 24.9 mpg. I have a friend who has a KB on his 05 GT. He's putting down 500+ lbs rear wheel torque. The KB looks great too. He's very happy with his s/c and as far as I know, it works great as a daily too.

The only reason I went turbo is to meet my power goals which are beyond the capacity of the P series Procharger. I also wanted to be able to adjust the boost from inside the cabin. My car is still a daily but only because the commutes are 2-3 miles in light traffic.

The Cenrti. blowers work great on the street. I can just criuze mine around, stay outta higher rpm's and you would never know its there. But when you want the power, its not far away.

sonicblue · October 10th, 2007, 08:55 AM

exactly what he said. they are great around town and easy to get good gas mileage out of cause you dont have to be in the boost. but step on the gas hard and you know its there
