[QUOTE="SteveG@Lethal, post: 12691001, member: 198640"] Well.... I'm going to give you pros and cons on both. We deal with all makes/models of blowers for a reason.... They all can do the same thing. It's just how you want it to look, act, and feel. I will also give you an honest answer because I have owned both brands on my own cars. Without trying to sell you, here is a list I put together of what each one has going for them. NOW FIRST.... BOTH SYSTEMS WILL MAKE THE SAME POWER depending on the head unit Prochager: Pro's: Separate belt system - Reason this is #1 for pro's is because for the every day street driver (which is 97% of this forum), if you ever snap a belt, you can still drive it home. You are not stuck. This also makes it so your not over lapping a longer single belt as your heart and soul. Blower Pulley - With running a dedicated belt system, this will also allow you to swap pulleys easier and on the fly. Belt Tension - With also running a separate system, you can crank down on the supplied idler to help eliminate the cause of belt slip Con's: Strain on crank - With the separate belt system, you can put more stress on the crank (but it's not a common thing at all) Intercooler upgrade - You have to spend a lot more to run a good intercooler but you have to swap out the fan and overflow tank Cost - With Procharger.... your paying for it. Vortech/ Paxton: Pro's: Intercooler - The built a well made intercooler that is great for street cars Intake System - Allows you to run aftermarket brands and help gain more power Size - They are using a well designed head unit that work well with these motors Cost - Very cheap for a blower Con's: Single Belt System - For those who have owned one know what I'm talking about. it sucks swapping belts because pretty much everything has to come off. Swapping Pulley - Read above Theirs a lot more I could get into but the point is to show you some of the main reasons with each system and coming from my own experience owning both.. if I had to choose.... I would pick procharger. it works and the cons are really not bad at all. [/QUOTE]
