I say , save more money , and Go KB.squares98 said:
you cant go wrong with KB no matter how HARD you try lol
yeah and your opinion matters when you don't even have a KB or Procharger on your car??
he asked about Prochargers obviously because thats what he can afford and they are by far the best centri for the money.
I know this board is a big KB bandwagon but someones gotta buck the trend.... besides how competitive are KB cars in FFW or NMRA?? oh wait...they're not!

he was probably just suggesting it because of the instant torque they provide, but they are pretty pricey unless you get a 1.7L non-intercooled: i believe it is 3799 for that...so technically the guy could afford it if he wanted to buy that..showstopper2 said:
(im sure that guys shop recommended the procharger because they specialize in that)
Personally i favor the Vortech SQ or Paxton Novi 2K and if someone ever gets REALLY tired of the S-trim, i can just upgrade to a T-Trim
yeah I didn't make that statement to be an *******.. I just get sick of this boards buy KB its the best and only blower out there attitude.
they are the most expensive kit to have some of the cheapest looking parts in the kit. for example the big air tube upgrade ghetto flexpipe.
I know guys have run decent times with them and they have a wide powerband and I respect that. but they are not the best blower for every application like everyone wants you to believe. and they also have problems with the snout leaking and pulleys breaking off so are not the most reliable either.
basically what I'm getting at is you need to look closely at exactly what your long term goal is for the car and pick a blower based on that... especially if your gonna put out well over 5k. I just found that I could buy alot more for the extra 1500 I saved not buying the KB that in the long run would help me out more.
