haha, what a way to put it, but I couldn't agree more, same with the light...







Regardless, I'm in the market for a good bolt on front mount kit as well. Resistance to winters and salt (as well as horrible chloride spray they use on my gravel roads) is a big priority, but I've been wondering if I'm just better off getting the pipes coated in something like jet-hot, rather than limiting myself just to stainless. Anyone have any input?
Also, I don't run a lower valence on my truck, so I can't use the typical FMIC like comes with the Trick kit. I'd rather have it mounted behind the upper grill if at all possible? Anyone know of an intercooler kit like this, or happen to have any shots of an install done like that?
Oh, and while I'm on the questions, I've also seen some front mount turbo kits that have the passenger exhaust crossover to the turbo in front of the engine, instead of behind and down below the bellhousing like the KB & trick. Is there any significant disadvantage or advantage to routing like that??

It's too bad they don't produce a boost map for these Centri's so you could compare them head-to-head.

P-1SC


SCrebuild's P1 Stage ll


An actual D-1SC


An F-1A


Just like on a turbo, the compound curves in the blades are the key to the flow. I've seen some Garrett turbos with upgrades impellers that have just a slight increase in the curve have a dramatic increase in the rate of flow.

Were can I buy an upgraded impeller like that for my p1

A D-1SC impeller will fit a P-1SC but not a P-1SC-1.

Looking at their P-1SC Stage ll upgrade (2nd picture), I would ask for a picture of their D-1SC replacement impeller. Unless it has the compounded curve blades (like the 3rd and 4th picture), it won't have the same HP potential or boost ramp-up.

A P-1SC looks like picture #1 and has the same 6.25" diameter impeller (exducer) as a D-1SC. The P-1SC-1 looks like the D-1SC but is only 5.25" in diameter.

They do not offer the wheel yet. I have asked again this month.. I just keep getting '' we have found a company that will do them, but no wheels yet'' I am waiting for sure, so I can order one up.. Like I said procharger is out of there mind for what they want to do a upgrade, all there things are hush hush. I am like what does the up grade consist of. I was told they have to do a inspection of it. Which cost money, then they go and put new seals ans all in it. So they get you 2 times. No need to inspect the thing, when it is getting a over haul.. Then I asked what consisted of the upgrade, I mentioned changing impellers. I was told yes they do that. I next asked what else. He said a few other things but wouldn't say exactly what.. Giving PC is imo the best centri blower out there. But they do have ya by the nut sac, when it comes to rebuilding them.. The guy almost blew his mind when I asked him if the impeller was pressed on. He said yes it is. It takes us about a hour to get it off.. I was like ok thank you.. So with a small PP torch, a bottle of r22, I had it off in about 15m.. RICK WHERE IS MY D1????? Ps I am still slowly tracking parts down for a turbo build
