Default Anyone Running a Powerdyne

Anyone Running a Powerdyne Supercharger and if so how long has it lasted?

Mine blew and took the belt, impeller and bearings with it..but it was used so dont know how many miles it had...cant decide if I should buy another or what...car is all set up for it that is why I was going to stick with a Powerdyne...

i think your talking about SSKILLER's.... but yes.. powerdyne sucks.. thats why you can get the whole supercharger kit for less then 2k.

if i was you i would look into a vortech, paxton novi 1k, or a procharger...... or if you want to be a little different, a kenne bell blowzilla/flowzilla.... thats what i am saving for right now.

Paxton and Vortech sell superchargers for less than $2K too.

Powerdynes seem to fail early and often. Save up for a Procharger or Vortech. Just over $2,500 for the kit.
