Default Supercharger vs Stall

Hey guys, im looking at getting a procharger, but my buddy keeps telling me I should get a stall instead... I argue with him about it because I'd rather have the procharger and just get a stall later.... What would your opinions be? Procharger first, or Stall first?

How is that even debatable? Get the ProCharger. End of story.

A stall is usually something you buy once you have a lot of power to utilize it with. Save your money and get a power adder.

Procharger and a stall are way different price ranges. Stall = $1000 installed with shift kit and tranny cooler. Procharger = $5000 + with shop installation and all supporting mods granted its purchased new and all. If you have the money get the supercharger HANDS DOWN. It will certaintly give you much lower ets and be more fun. Wish I could afford one.

Also, thats what Ive been trying to tell my friend, Id rather have the Pro to add the horse than the stall to just work with exsisting power. Anyways. Thanks guys, I think im pretty much convinced here.

What kit are you looking at getting, a friend of mine bought an entire D-1sc kit with all supporting mods and might be looking to turn his car back to stock and sell it. He has it sitting in the original boxes in his garage. Let me know if your interested and I'll get in touch with him on a price.
