ProCharger and Strut Tower Brace not compatible?

[KrisHorton]

Just doing some shopping and I've been considering buying the BMR Fab strut tower brace, but realised, it might interfere with the intake pipe for the ProCharger that I am installing. Anyone that has a ProCharger out there, could you give me an idea of whether or not they will be compatible?

Thanks!

I can't say for sure, but I would say yes. The airfilter basically hits the bottom of the hood when closed.

I suppose then what I lack in cornering I make up for in the straights. Can't have my cake and eat it too huh?

Thanks for the heads up. Enjoying your ProCharger? It'll be a few weeks yet before I see mine I believe.

OH hell yes. I got tuned last night and today - it keeps the tires lite up from 1st thru 3rd Time for some traction action.

What size tires are on it right now? I'd like to get some 295's on the back, 305 or 315's if I can fit them. Nitto's already onboard. God bless sticky tires.

I had the Steeda brace on with the ProCharger but took it off for the time being. It was rugging against the filter and intake tube. I'll have to re-think how I reposition the intake.

This appears to be a wicked combination, and everything seems to fit nicely. I don't know if there have been any adjustments, but at least we know it's possible. I see a Steeda Bar and I'm pretty sure that's a procharger, though please correct me if it isn't.

Wow, that's pretty impressive! Is it available with the provision for the procharger already? I might consider using that instead of the Steeda Cowl hood. Anyone have more info?

I managed to get the Steeda brace back on. It just slightly touches the filter cone. I have the black "Steel Strut Tower Brace".

We also put most of the steeda catalog on it including Front and rear strut tower braces,Panhard bar and brace, lower control arms,4:10 rear end with axle cover and race motor mounts. The guys and girls (Kim) at Classic Design Concepts have some great stuff including Duck tail spoiler and an agressive front end splitter that trows air at prochargers intecooler.
