Procharger vs. Turbo

[prochargedcobra]

So, when do you have full boost with a Centri?????

Redline. If the kit is a 7 lb and your redline is say 6,000 then you would only see 1.75 at 3,000 rpms. At twice the rpms it would be 4 times the boost. Twice the rpm then 4 times the boost. Not as powerful as turbo but no lag at all. The turbo would however pull on centif. And plus one on the belt slip problem. I hate that about blowers, but with the right setup= no problems.

so if you have a say f1-c procharger, and are pushing about 850 to the wheels from a cobra, how often are you looking at tearing up belts, and why do people go through belts so much?

i feel like an idoit, but i only have a little ol' 1965 coupe with a 289 and am looking at getting a cobra and making a 800 to 900 hp street machine... with a 03-04 cobra, what would be better for street strip? price doesnt really effect me, i live by myself and have a great job... i want something and i want it done right...


thanks for the help guys!

Vortech Ysi trim and 150 shot would own a turbo car......

If your pulleys arent aligned right then yes you will have problems but if belt wrap is good and pulleys aligned then no prob.

And a turbo car with 150 shot would own a blower car. Whats your point?

Check my dyno sheet. Red line was t-trim setup @17 psi. Blue line turbo @ 14 psi. The t-trim made more peak with more boost but the turbo murdered it though the mid range with less boost.

Turbo if you have about $8-10K to spend

I've only got $3500 in my kit to include a brand new turbo, wg, and bov. I did have to add oil relocation kit and new MAF.

I just made 767rwhp/731tq with a PTK 76mm kit on a 97 cobra

it pulls like a freight train

motor has stock cams, minor ported heads, FR500 valvetrain.

Since you don't consider having to wait for redline to be at full boost. Here is another video I made yesturday. I have the car in 3rd gear which is 1:1 at 1500rpm. I then go wot till I finally hit 19psi. And you call this lag. :shrug:
