Default Which Supercharger?

i have a stock 95 5.0 aside from a full exhaust(shorties,catted x,and flows with tails)and a 95 cobra intake.im trying to figure out what blower to run with.vortech or kenne bell.keep in mind i live in vegas and we see 110-120 summer heat.i also have 410 gears...not installed and am building another motor that will be a 306 with tfs heads and tfs1 cam,with the same intake.ill have the 42lbs injectors and lighning mass air and a damn fine dyno tune...so what are your thoughts.

i have a 04 gt i too am debating forced induction. unless you go turbo the consensus on sc is kb. given its amazingly efficient twin screw design and reliability. i asked this quest titles "best supercharger?" if you would like to view peoples comments

much appreciated.i spoke with kenne bell and they said i cant go past 6psi because the blower creates to much heat and in my enviroment it will create even more.and vortech said i cant go past 8 in my environment.whats a guy to do?the kb is 3800 to my door and vortech is2900.

Try an intercooled kit. As for which type, the basic question is do you want instant, low end torque or the most top end power? Go with a twin-screw for the instant kick, and if you want the power up high, go for a centrifigal. I've a Powerdyne & a Whipple. Both got me down the track in about the same time, and neither needed oil lines drilled, so I personally like those two, but there's about 10+ options of brands to consider. In your case, I think the best bet would be to go to your favorite local sales / tuner / installer, and ask them which blowers they prefer to use locally. Pretty much the most important thing with power-adders is the tuning, so why not go with what your local people are having the most success with?

we dont have many blown 5.0s out in vegas that are street cars.so they all have prochargers at high boost levels and vortechs at high boost levels also with snow meth systems..i think the kb at 6-8psi would keep me happy for a while but the only people that have the kbs are modular guys and thats comparing apples to oranges.

I would go Turbo Despite where you live. The right Intercooler is the Key to High boost in high heat. Even if you decide to go with a Blower Opt. out of the Intercooler and run one of ours. The are 98% Efficient VS all others that are only 70% MAX. Bar and Plate Intercooler are WWII technology and are not up to the task.
We have a 100% alcohol injection system too that will out perform all the other ALKY/water kits. On a N/A motor our kit reduced intake temps by 100 degrees. It will also make it possible to run 87 octaine and still run boost. With 87octaine it will put you at about 96 oct. and with 93 it will put you at 108. The potential is huge with this kit, I have a customer running 25psi with 93, nobody else can claim that!

Let me know if you need any help with your selection.

If you do deside to go turbo then our kit is the best on the market and it has a Lifetime limited waranty on everything but the Turbonetics Turbo and it is covered for 1 year by Turbonetics.
The best part is with our systems you get to pick the turbo size that best matches your motor setup. You get to pick from a 58mm to a 76mm at no extra charge. Everyone charges at least $599 to change the turbo. You know how much it costs them? $0 If you want you can pay me $599 for a phone call! LOL

I hope your build goes well man, it sounds like vegas cops better be on the look out!

Let me know if you need anything!

I would look up procharger and get info from them. I just got a book from them ( only took 2 days) they have kits that come with intercooler. Plus you can upgrade later when you want more boost.

Opt out of the IC and run one of ours they are 28% more efficent than the Bar and Plate units. That means More Boost with Less Fuel! You can't beat that!

Look at the chart on this page, ProCharger Intercooling Take the final output of 28degrees and subtract an additional 26 degrees. That is the bennifit of our design over the Bar and Plate design Intercoolers. The best part is that we are able to make the Intercooler to the size that you need to better suit your application and style. We have obtained the results that I stated above at 22 PSI of boost on the track for after 3 hours of running. You just cant argue with those numbers.

Also keep in mind that we can even make Intercoolers for your vortech and paxton supercharger kits. We specialize in custom applications, so dont expect to pay so outragous price because it is custom. That is what we do for everyone!

RED DRAGON 95: I think that I might be able to get you into a turbo system for cheaper. It will be a little different but it will work if you still want to take that route. Call me

later,

Speed
