Procharger vs XCharger

lrguess · 03-27-2009

I have an 08 4.0 and am dead stuck between Procharger stage 2 system and the xcharger system... My main thing is reliability, horsepower comes second. Would the XCharger be less reliable due to no intercooler? Anyone with experience with either of these systems or just with an opinion would be awesome. Thanks!

I decided on the X charger because I like the nice clean look under the hood and Dave a Xplorer xpress said they have X's they have sold that have over 100,000 miles on them with no intercooler. The centrifugal work well but they take up alot of space like a turbo. i personally don't like alot of clutter.

Have you looked at turbos? If you're willing spend a little more, a turbo would be the way for you to go. They are much less demanding on your engine. You can get alot more horsepower at lower psi.

POWERHOUSE 411 makes a turbo for the v6 one of the guys has one and his car will eat almost any v6 on the road!!!!! im going to be getting a x charger next month the hi-po with the steeda combo seems sick! just 4300 is alot of money, but there is always finacing!!!!!

if you want alot of power get the procharger cause it will give you the power around 4500-5000 rpm if you want instant boost and power the x will do you good!

by hipo do you mean with the 3.0 pulley (7-9 psi) or 2.8 pulley (10-11 psi)?
