I have nothing against Prochargers at all. I loved my Procharger kits but turbo power is Unlike anything else! Prochargers are easier to install I can tell you that.

how much pipe did you end up using, I'm on summit right now thinking how much I am going to need. I figured one u bend with a 6 in radius and one 4 ft strait pipe should do the trick
