RE: which supercharger
I have the procharger with the intercooler. Just waiting 2 get a chance to take it to a dyno to get #'s and tuned.
It's quit. If u want the loud whistleing sound this is not 4 u. Not very noticible.

Agreed. The KB will cost more, too (2.2L kit will total you about $8000 when all is said and done) but you'll have a street MONSTER.
A Vortech will cost you about $4000, but you won't have the possibility for the same amount of boost.

If you have a choice between a KB Blowizalla, or a Pro-charger..... Go with the KB all the way no questions asked. You will have instant boost from your low RPM's all the way to redline.

$8000 is a little steep, even for the 2.2L. The kit comes with everything but injectors, a belt, tune, and the mass air. The kit is $5400, and I can guarantee you won't have $2600 in the 4 things that don't come with it. You might have $6500 total. Also, twinscrew and centrifiguals are worlds apart...all depends in what ya want I guess.

Why do you care? When was the last time you started a race at 1500 RPM?? Do you start your 20 MPH roll races in 4th???

RE: which supercharger
I knew you should change the bottom end of your engine to forged parts when putting on a s/c, but what about the rear end? What exactly do you need to strengthen? Would upping the gear help any?
