Default Forced Induction Question

Ok, i just got a 2002 silver z28 camaro and its my only car so it must be very driveable. I would like to know what the best forced induction route would be for a daily driver, a turbo or a supercharger, and if a super charger which style would be best, root twin screw or cyntrifcul. Your opinnion would be much appreciated

Don't waste your time trying to tackle a twin screw... I would personally go with a d1sc procharger. Probably would be your best bet.

your going to get a ton of different answers on here so do yourself a favor and call Bob from Exotic Performance. he is a sponser on this site and one of the most respected men in the buisiness. that being said I will vote for a basic procharger D1SC 8 rib setup. you can run around 8 psi and be in the 450-500 rwhp range. with bone stock drivability. I think if you do some searching on here you will find that people running turbos have several more issues and I think Bob will agree. good luck with your decision

D1SC Procharger, 6.0L 317 heads, upgraded pushrods/valvetrain, minor fuel mods.... golden.


If you have a M6.... save for clutch, Tick master cyl, and 12bolt/9". If you have a auto... upgrade trans cooler NOW and start saving for a built 4L60 or 4L80.

They dont fit well... they run out of steam up top.... IMO the Procharger is a better option.

Turbo for the win, but i guess if you want hands down reliablility and ease of install, then procharger FTW.
