I love my Procharger but when I build a big stroker motor I'm going with a 4.0 Whipple.

I know if I ever do another build with forced induction I'll be looking toward the F1 category for my boost.
The problem is that the few that go procharger and try to push it, don't really give it a chance or know what they are doing. There is nothing simpler than making big power with a procharger.

I'm gonna get flamed for this statement but.........they are much nicer to tune as well.

They never got above 70*. I wasn't running much ice though.

Really ???? Every **** on here runs a KB or trick setup. Now a few guys went the custom route. PC is it's own world as far as who's running them on this page..

Prochargers definitely have their place, but you gonna be dedicated!

IMO
-TVS's are the best bet for DD'ing street bruisers sub 600 rwhp
-Turbo's best for combination street and Track.
-Prochargers, done right are for the Hardcore Track guys.


That's not to say you can't make any of them great for one specific purpose but generally that's how I think of each one of them individually.
I personally couldn't stand DD'ing a Procharger because of the constant noise, felt the same way about the Whipple and Maggie's but with the TVS' they aren't so bad anymore.
