PROCHARGER SUPERCHARGERS

I am a week away from purchasing a D1 procharger kit for my 2011 SS. I have researched a little bit and I think this is the way I'm going to go. Figured I'd get ur guys opinion first. Any procharged camaros out there? If so how do u like it, also ne one else think there's something that's more of a bang for your buck? All comments and suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

I'd let you know, but I'm in the middle of installing mine. I chose Procharger because I've always liked their products. I can tell you that they make a quality kit.

Depends totally on how you want your power delivered. If you're OK with a "soft" bottom end knowing that you'll make a little more on the top end, they're a good way to go. If you're wanting to keep the boost mild, a P/D blower will deliver the same amount of boost sooner. For mild boost on stock engines, the P/D blowers are the way to go. If your goals are loftier, the centri's make more sense once you get much past 650 or 700rwhp. Centri's are easier to "hook" on the strip if the 1320 is what tickles your jumblies. Just my opinion....not trying to start a P/D vs Centri war

I did mine with a wastegate to help the bottom-end boost, in addition to other benefits.

620rwhp through a stalled automatic, 10.7's and trapping over 128mph.

I'd say I'm liking my ProCharger D1-SC.

This is the way to go in my opinion....best of both worlds.

I'm a week away from having ECS install thier NOVI 1500 on mine. To me they seem to have a solid kit, plus it helped that their shop is only about an hour away from where I live, and it's all highway.

I've heard of warranty issues, ducting problems, clogged oil lines, etc.
