Looks like you are on the right track. I helped persuade Brien (The Alchemist) to do the same a year or so ago. He was looking for affordable power, and Procharger was the answer. He loves his car now. It's definitely a handful on the road.

You won't be disappointed going this route. And if you deal with Bob @ Brute, he is the guy to talk to about anything Procharger. I'm sure he'll hook you up.

Good luck!

I do sell the race valve for less than what I have it on the website, the same goes for the head units. The other items are what they are. Thanks. Bob

Now you can look into that aluminum piping kit from CX racing as well as an intercooler. plumb the Bypass valve in to a vac. pick up the crank pulley. grab a racetronix fuel pump and hotwire, and some injectors for cheap somewhere and pin it, slap a belt on and see what happens. bob can get you the full install manual if you need it. Think he has a .pdf---you should be done in no time. especially if tax time is coming and you sell that turbo stuff.

good luck.


If you can get 80lb inj go for it. you may need them later on.

Thanks man! The intercooler kit might be the next thing I look at. I'm still keeping my eyes open for a big red bypass to come up for sale cheap too. I've actually had the racetronix fuel pump and hotwire on the car for awhile. I did that when I put the cam in when I had n20. Also have racetronix 42lb injectors, but I might sell those and look for bigger ones....

Dual intank fuel pumps from Lonnie. One day you're going to turn up the boost, and without a solid fuel supply, it's a recipe for disaster. It's well worth the money to go with his setup.

The fueling requirements are much greater with a FI setup. I ran 2 Walbro GS-340's with 60's on the stock lines with 0 issues.

If your handy check out the stick at the top of this section and read how to make your own dual in tank set up. Since your on a budget it might do you some good to study that and take the time and save yourself some money.
