procharger SC
Are there any negative issues with procharger SCs? It seems like All of the big name's (ECS, A &A, etc) are running paxton, vortec etc. How are prochargers on C5s?
Thanks
Thanks

I have a H/C car with ALL the bolt ons, making 414 rwhp with TC unlocked. I guess I was wondering if adding the P1SC-1 would be a good fit. I have a 224 cams with Dart heads at 10.8, and I don't want to swap out heads. I would like to see around 550rwhp at around 6psi, but didn't know how well my trans or stock bottom end would handle it. I NEVER go to the track anymore, so it is just a street setup.

It will make 550 easy & be very drivable with a good tune. I made those numbers with a 01 ls6....Made hundreds of passes..high 10's...& drove 20,000 + miles & never had a valve cover off. That was with a 01 ZO6

Bob, I always truly enjoy going through your builds. You guys do awesome work, and someone there knows how to run the camera nicely. I show your builds off every chance I get to fellow military type folk.

Thanks, we appreciate it. I do the camera and website stuff myself. I use to be in charge of a group of guys in an engineering department in a former life, where we took pic's and created installation manuals, and I enjoy doing the website stuff. Bob

Most of the daily driven supercharged C5's that I see are procharged. I have a Vortech SQ Trim with a very conservative tune and love it but hate it when I have to deal with a belt issue..I know that A&A has designed brackets to improve the original Vortech set up but I really like the Pro Chargers.

The forum member I'm buying it from said he had had purchased it with 6000 miles on it (never installed it himself because he went stroked, H/C route) said he took it to his shop, that is a procharger vendor, and had it checked out and it was good to go. Is there anything I need to look for when I get it?
