After coming from the vortech world when I had a BMW I love the low rpm torque of the PD blowers. The Bimmer combo I had just started making boost at 4000 rpm and climbed all the way in a linear fashion. Getting max boost and 500 ft. lbs. of torque below 3000 rpm is most excellent for ripping around like i like to do.
I do understand these centri's have come a long way and work well on these motors. They are easily expandable and put out some good numbers up top but the torque with a PD will always give you more power under the curve.
If you want crazy drag racing power go with a Centi if you want low end hooligan power go with PD.
Like has been said the auto with a high stall really helps the Centrti because the engine is not running down low. I am a stick or nothing guy so I need me some low end grunt. This is a heavy beast after all.

Procharger ,esc, will fit without me getting rid of my roto fab engine covers.and seems like it will give me the power I want instead of doing cam and heads.
