supercharger

well i decided this weekend to go with a supercharger instead of having my engine done first, so i am thinking of the vortech centrifugal, it would put me right at 500 flywheel and only cost 4000 to do right now

Wuss...

Cool but what happened with the NOS?

His tank ran dry....

i still have it, i just changed to getting a SC first and doing my engine later. i wont be able to run any nos with the stock engine and SC.

i can only run that at the track and the SC is all the time

I see you want more balls on the street. I would recomend the bell or whimple less noise but mo money

I think the vortech is in his pricepoint

kurtis is checking on a procharger, so we will see what costs the least. vortech has a tuner kit for 3300 that i would only have to buy 39lb injectors for, so for 3700 i could have 500 horses under the hood!!

i like the noise, i had a turbo in my sti

Doc... I leary of those 500hp claims from Vortec.... I've read plenty of people that were lucky to get 400-425hp.

BUT! You do have cams that should help you get their.

I'm with ya. I love the KBs but If I pay $5k plus for something... I want people to hear it!

after looking at everything and talking with kurtis i need to go with a cooler on it, which raises the price by about 1000, so now i am looking at around 4700 for a procharger.

the good news is we can install it ourselves so that saves some money and sitting time!

If you don't go intercooled you can use the water meth kits they work real good and even better on intercooled kits

I too am leaning toward the HO vortech or Procharger intercooled. I think I like the procharger better with the intercooler mounted down behind the front facia. The vortech unit and aftercooler looks a bit busy.

I'd just sell the thing and go buy a roush p51 with 510 hp.

I love P51s... It's just hard to find a landing place close to home and work.

The one on the sunday cruise was pretty sweet.

I have a Vortec on my truck and it makes good HP but like 70% is in the 300 rpm before you shift. It maybe different on the 4.6 but I would think it would be as bad or worse cause they are laking in low and mid rang torque and HP as it is. Just My .02. Seems more like a turbo with lots a lag.

I too was also thinking of going with the Procharger when funds allow....David and I have tossed around ideas of a Procharger setup. Doc in my opinion...the Procharger has the most complete kit...its a stand alone system that doesnt require tapping your oil pan like the Vortech, Intercooler is behind the bumper, and its a lot louder at idle...which I like :)

Good luck in your decision....I just want a ride when your done!!!

Vortech now has one that is self oiling also. Hasn't been out long though.

I like proven results. Also Vortech's arent usually that loud at idle...they like to keep things quiet over there at Vortech. ewwww

i dont spend much time below 3000 rpms anyway except in 5th on the highway, so i am not worried about lag at all. i think i am ordering the procharger today, any one up for an install this weekend?

When were you thinking about starting Chris?

i have to get with kurtis, he is out of the office right now and get it ordered, since they are in kansas, hopefully it could be here by this weekend

procharger is ordered, hopefully it will be here on friday, i wont know until later today.

Did you order me one???

i ordered one extra so you will have to fight for it, we will be doing some cage fighting

ITS ON PAUL!!! ITS CLOBBERING TIME!!

The President gets dibs... You know the rules.

Plus I don't hit girls.

I'm your huckelberry.

Good work Doc. Anxious to see how well it goes I might be pulling the trigger myself soon.
