A social aquaintence of mine, whom I spoke of a long time ago here, had a white TA w/ the Vortech Supercharger...I'm pretty sure it was something like this.

Let me tell you...he had that engine bored over too...it was a freakin monster!!! That was one of those situations where you said..."there's just too much hp here to handle and get to the pavement!"

now that I think about it my buddy scott has a blown cobra, pushing 1000hp

That's a centrifugal supercharger, though...I thought those were a stay-away-from-it type of supercharger...

No he's got a whipple, usually when someone uses the term blown they're refering to roots style blower.

Not me personally, I'm usually referring to any supercharger. Then again, I'm a turbo-guy, so maybe the supercharger-guys have more specific terms.

yeah when someone says that they have a supercharger, for us it means like vortec (centrifugal) when they say blower, or blown its in for a roots style blower.

I just put up that link because that's what the buddy had on his TA.

You said it's a monster...How much of a monster?

That looks like one helluva setup...!

*Mr. Wyndham* · 07-26-2007, 10:27 PM

what do y'all think of Procharger...
I was reading their site and comparing them to others, and I must say, they look pretty impressive. However, as I have NO experience with FI, I thought I'd ask you guys....and gals.

Ive seen pretty impressive procharger setups.

They are quite possibly the best bang for the buck.

*Mr. Wyndham* · 07-27-2007, 05:13 PM

I was starting to think that myslef. It's good to have some re-enforcement. Are they quality, though? I mean they've got that self-contained oil system thing, does that hamper durability, or quality?
