If it's staying on the street, I think you will like the the low-end from the Kenne Bell set up. It builds boost instantly and will work well with your 3:73's.

Im going through this same debate in my head. Procharger or KB!! I love to be able to "squirt" from stop light to stoplight like a KB would offer, but I love the kick ass top end pull of the Procharger. I know 2 cars local one KB one Procharger..similar mods. 1/4 mile E.T's are near identical but the Procharger has a 6 mph advantage! Thats a huge difference on the street, especially in an expressway encounter with an adversary!
The fact that the Procharger is damn near half the cost of the KB, makes the KB a tuff sell........But that Torque!!!!!!

Decisions, Decisions!!!

Do you have another dyno sheet where the pull starts at 2k-2.5k rpms? I want to compare it to my old sheet at 9.5psi

Here's my old dyno sheet when i was running 9.5-10 psi, this set up is for 13-14psi but above 5400rpms the belt started to slip, it made 320rwtq @ 3000rpms, 420rwtq @ 4000rpms, 460rwtq @ 4500rpms, 495rwtq @ 5000rpms, above 4000rpms the centri blower starts to pull hard and does not quit, i don't want to start a war just a little comparation between the blowers for the guy, remember that i have a 5.0 stroker which is about 30 extra rwhp.

Notice how the boost stays flat after 5400 rpms due to belt slippeage, it made 491rwhp @ 5600 rpms and 9.5 psi, it now makes 539rwhp @ 6300rpms, on thing i love on the centrifugal blowers is that the keep going and going.

I like Kenne bells in fact i was trading my novi 2000 for a 2.2kb but after i did a search i came to the conclusion it wasn't worth on my case, all i need is 3.73 or 4.10 gears.

Ahh the beauties of a stroker kit really shine in teh TQ department.

A stock 4.6 would be hard pressed to make 491TQ with any blower at 9psi

Ok you made me pull a dyno sheet of my old s/c 03 Gt, its a 2v, vortech s-trim @ 10psi stock internals..... It made 380rwtq @ 4k rpms, imagine this with a set of 4.10 gears!

I had that talk with Hermann for about an hour....he said "dude go with 3.73s trust me" so i did...he's installing them in Oct along with a diff brace and Spec 2 Clutch
