$6,000 for 5psi at 210hp. why would anyone in there right mind buy this over a turbo?
I can get my 2871 M7 to spool 1psi before the clutch engages and make it act like a big bore thru the power band.
It just blows my mind when I say that last night. I doubt that it can even go higher then 5psi with out just blowing thru the ports.
You have to understand how much air is getting moved at said psi rating. Also the kit has and will be able to go past 5 psi if you would like.
I dont think they sold many.........for good reason
yeah getting stuck with 5 psi max sounds like a blast!!! lol. or not at all. probably just sell to the rouge suckers here and there and make plenty off it to cover minimal sales.
They sold many kits and more are going out this year as well already. Just because you dont see people on the net does not mean they are not out there.
Not to mention the the weight and mechanical issues with a supercharger. I just don't see how this was a good business decision on speedwerx parts.
But to each there own.
Procharger is the manufacture of the supercharger and has a very extensive reputation with quality and results. The procharger head unit itself is within reason of lbs to a comparable turbo. All said and done I would say the Procharger kit may be a touch lighter then comparable hp to hp turbo kits.
I think the kit was designed for a certain type of on and off throtle say tree riders and jumpers. Yes turbos spool up quick if your holding it wide open but in a techical spot its very easy to back out a litle to much in the mid range and get below the fine line where they blowoff and loose all the boost for a second before it can charge the intake pipe again. Also anytime your in the air and need power to pull the nose up a turbo cant provide because the track must be loaded in order to make boost. I havent seen the speedwerks supercharger but i was STOKED on the ripcharger kit if they can hit the right price point.
Correct this was designed off the ultimate all around forced induction upgrade with back country in main mind set. Turbo are on or off to be efficient at peak hp to throttle. A correctly mapped out super charger setup is designed for a wider range of forced induction and performance rpm ability. It is a whole different ride that just needs to be experienced before making judgment.
As for price look at what you are getting price to price hp to hp capability.
