Cool help me decide, procharger vs front mount

ok, I started building my truck for a procharger. but the more trucks videos that I see with turbos just makes me wanna go with a turbo. I'm buying a 97 Jeep Cherokee this weekend so that will be my dd. Would like to here some more from the more experienced bunch. Mods in sig.

I've had the procharger. Between the 2 I would go turbo. That being said I love my maggie.

WJ Mark (I think) has run both. You might ask him.

What would be an ideal cam/stall with a kbracing intercooled t76. Would it be necessary to swap out my 4.56 gears?

Seeing that this is gonna be your race truck/weekend bruiser and not a DD than you could go either way since ProCharger's seem to be track monster's when set-up correctly. That being said I would still lean over to the turbo side of things.

4.56s are not going to work good for a turbo, we can meet up and I'll swap you my 3.42s

maybe, but I think 3.42 might be alittle too deep with my tire size. How will my cam work with a turbo 224/230 .58/.59 114 with a 3000-3200 stall?

they are different in their power delivery and it is hard to judge this by videos


I own one and have ridden in a turbo set-up.[2ktransam] Also all your current mods lean toward procharger.
