Default Info for Procharger

I am pricing out various places (in Canada) for a Procharger. Is a valvetrain upgrade recommend? Places I am talking with are saying the D-1SC is not necessary for a stock engine. I quote "may be a challenge to spin it below 10 psi, this is a bit of a gamble with a stock engine"

So I am thinking the P-1SC might be right for me. They did say they would put in 60 LB inj. as well as a big intank pump (the in-line one is too loud and buzzy).

Thx for any info...I have been reading lots, but you can never have enough knowledge.

Thanks!

The ATI ProCharger D-1SC pn# 1GJ204-SCI kit works very well with stock LS1 engines. We install the D-1SC kit on many basically stock LS1 engines, and the 1GJ204-SCI comes with the larger 4.5" intercoolers, and will run cooler than the P-1SC. At any given psi, the D-1SC does not have to be spun as fast, so a larger pulley can be used on the blower, which give it better belt wrap. The 1GJ204-SCI is also an eight rib assembly, which eliminates belt slippage problems that can occur with the six rib units.
I have put together a complete kit that will save you a lot of money.

Hi Bob,

Thx for the reply. My only problem is I am in Canada, and I get screwed at the border for duty/brokerage.

I see the $6120 included the "tune". I already have the LS1 Edit...and will have it re-tuned here. Is there a savings if I get this kit without the "tune"?

Thx

How much is the duty/taxes? Maybe you could drive the car across the country and get it installed for the same price or less than what the taxes would cost you.

Do whatever it takes to get it right the first time.

Bob is the man, and EPP is the place. Go for it, IMHO.

Yes, I certainly can. I've dealt with a lot of customer's up in Canada, and I know the border is a hassle to deal with.
No savings to have my kit without a tune, the price is already as low as I can take it. Thanks for inquiring. Bob

I'd say the P-1SC and the D-1SC both are at about the same decibel. I can't walk up to a vehicle with an ATI ProCharger and know by the sound which unit it is. Bob

Very well, the LS2 engine is a great foundation for a D-1SC installation. Bob

PM tjwong or TwoFast4Lv. They are both knowledgeable guys in western WA that can install the blower & tune it for you. I'm sure Bob can work with either as they both have shops. TJ even has a Mustang Dyno, but he is down in Vancouver WA. TwoFast is east of Everett - he helps me tune my car.

My D is just a little louder than my P was. But the increased power will make you forget about that. Nice thing about the D is you'll have room to grow in the future. Bob's kit looks like it comes with everything you'll need. And he's a GREAT guy to have around if you run into issues.

I assume Bob can offer you a choice of pulley sizes. On a stock motor, I would want to choose a pair that keeps my red line below 6k. You can still make a ton of power & not torture your motor. Have fun....

Yes indeed, we take into account all aspects of the customer's combination to try to match the blower pulley for the amount of psi they wish to make. For example, a 402 is going to require a smaller sized blower pulley than a 346 for X psi of boost. Exhaust, headers, camshafts, heads, rpm, elevation and more all play a part in choosing the correct blower pulley. Bob
