I'm thinking about a supercharger and wondering about how much weight they add to the mix. Handling/roadracing is my primary concern. Type of supercharger is relevant because of power delivery characteristics and is up for debate. I am looking at both the Saleen and the Procharger. Both totally different by design and power delivery. The shipping weight of the Procharger is 90lbs. I'm not sure how much the Saleen weighs. Any info or thoughts on this???

 

My Paxton was about 99 lbs minus about 7 lbs of stuff we took off so around 90lbs of weight.

 

Centris are generally lighter than roots and twin screw blowers. I believe procharger makes the lightest kit for our cars.

 

Centri's are lighter because they have no intercooler, or if they do, it's air-to-air.

My Saleen had a shipping weight of 125 pounds. Minus probably 15 pounds for packaging and installation manuals and other garbage, then minus the 5-10 pounds worth of stuff that comes off the car, plus the weight of a gallon of coolant for the intercooler, and I'd put the weight of the complete installed Saleen system somewhere in the 110 pound range.
