Procharger help

[02stangman]

Hey guys, I've been searching for 3 days now and I find alot of talk about prochargers and some good info but i'm wondering what kind of motor setups you guys with prochargers have. H/C/I, bottom end, bored? I'm looking to see what combinations work well with the procharger. I have an 88' 5.0 thats all stock right now but it's getting rebuilt soon.

Thanks

Only info I have is a buddy of mine had a Dart 331 with procharger 16 psi, afr 225s, 8:8:1 compression ran 10.20s at like 128 ish... Its been awhile i havent talked to him in years, but the car is a street car, daily driven in the summertime very nice car

I had a procharger on my 347 stroker. Had eagle forged rotating assembly on a stock block and a trick flow top end kit as well as some other bolt ons. Ran good and did great on the street. I had a D1SC kit. The only things I would do differently.

1. buy it used. I spent alot on a brand new kit.

2. Bought one that was bolt up to a stock 95 mustang. While that is all fine and dandy with the mods you do have to tweak or modify some things.

3. Most importantly. mine was a 95 but regardless of year on the 5.0 I would use the renegade setup. You won't be able to run ac but ps will still be there. Basically it takes the single 8 rib belt setup away and runs your motor and acc. on the 8 rib and you run the procharger on a dedicated 12 rib setup. I had big problems with belt slippage with mine. THey are a hell of alot of fun though.

4. Get the self contained unit. FOr the little extra cash.....Its def. worth it.

Otherwise have fun. Install was pretty easy to do yourself but it will have to be tuned.

To be honest it really doesnt matter what HCI or combo the ATI is put on top of, it will greatly increase power.

The increase in power will be based on what motor you are putting it on. What you need to deceide on it, what is the power output you are looking for in the future. This will help you purchase the correct size head unit, P1SC or D1SC, and tubing size. I personally like the small things you get by going to the D1SC, bearing design, etc... if you buy new you also get ATI's warranty which is pretty nice.
