Which procharger would you recomend? I have the following mods GT 40 intake, windsor jr heads, b303 cam, 24# injectors, 1.72 rockers and the block is a 306 with forged internals. Been looking a while and now Im finally making the jump. I believe my compression ratio is around 9.5 to 1 too 10 to 1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yup, P1SC is well matched to your combo.

Or you could do the D1SC, bigger and better than the P1SC. Especially if you have a forged engine, you can run upto I believe 14lbs with the D1sc, compared to the P1SC.

Plus the D1SC is an eight rib, compared to a six rib.

Click to expand...

The ONLY differences between the P1SC and D1SC is 200 cfm and 2 psi. The P1 will support 1200 cfm(PLENTY for this setup) and 30 psi (WAY overkill for this setup). The P1 is all you'll need till you get over ~800 HP.

The D1SC comes with a three core intercooler though also. I've heard of belt slipping on the P1SC because of the 6 rib belt on higher boost.

Never had a P series blower support 800HP, the D series is a better fit there, and just for reference the F1A is only good for about 1000HP.

Depends what you are doing with the car, the PS1C stage II upgrade will support a lot of power on a street car and feed even most stroker combo's. I would say do not be afradit o go with the larger blower the D series is a nice upgrade and will only cost about $300 more.

The car is mostly street toy and ocassionally takin to the track to play around with time trials. But I dont want to split the motor just yet. I need to work some more overtime to cover that! LOL

The P1SC is their newer entry level self contained blower. As per their website, it supports a max of 825 HP, 30psi and 1200 CFM. The D1SC is the bigger brother, it shows to support a max of 925, 32psi and 1400 CFM. Many people do opt for the D because it can handle the higher HP numbers more efficently than the P.

Your compression is fine but I suggest keeping it under 12psi on pump gas.

For your description, the P1SC will be fine, and still have room to grow if you throw in a stroker in the future.

Wouldn't the P1 blower bring on boost at a faster rate than a D1?

I think you'll need a custom tune if the compression is closer to 10:1... The P and D series bring boost on very similar, I do find the D builds boost quicker, I am just finishing up a 96 32V Cobra with a D-Series.

Should I switch from the 24# injectors to the 42# when I get the charger? And Rick you dont think that 10. to 1 compression is going to hurt the longevity with a good tune? you guys are a great help. Also does the kit come with the battery relocator kit if that even needs to be done, seems like I have read that it located on the battery side of the car. One last thing would an intercooler benefit me since the compression is kinda high?

42# injector for sure, intercooling will be a huge help and you will need a good custom tune to keep it in check w/ 10:1 comp. The kits come with a battery relocation kit.

trying in my mind to place were the intercooler would go in reference to the motor? Rick to bad you aint close to NC man I would feel real good letting you check my car out man!LOL But if you could give me a little more guidance you can shoot me an email at boakey@nc.rr.com I just dont want to screw anything up. I started on this supercharging idea march of 05 after buying the bigger 255 pump and maf meter for the 42# injectors and then was told that with the compression being like it was that they wouldnt do it. The motor had been sitting up for about 6 years and I finally got some cash to start back playing around with mustangs and picked up a decent body and here I am asking questions and would like the motor to last a little while not 100000 miles or anything just dependable on occasion. Thanks again Rick all advice you are given is great help as you seem to be very knowledgeble.
