Upgrades necessary with Procharger?
I'm looking to add a procharger to my 2010 manual. I'm currently making about 490 at the tired with a new cam, heads, and a full exhaust. After the procharger is it necessary to upgrade the rear end if I don't plan on launching it hard at the track and I'll mostly just be doing highway pulls?
Thanks |

Fuel,driveshaft,suspension are popular.
If roll racing, I think the rear should last a bit. what is your cam spec. |

the better question is what power level are you trying to reach?
I personally think the rear end is fairly strong, minus the posi unit. I shredded my spider gears with 620whp but several trips to the track. That was more because of my burnout and 1 wheel peels. I ran a 10.99 and tons of low 11 second passes at the track with completely stock rear end, trans, and suspension. Only upgrades i did were clutch(mcleod RXT) and axles(DSS1400hp), and 18" DR's. Even after snapping my output shaft (known issues on early 2010 builds) and my posi unit... i went back to stock. But after finishing my motor build this year i plan on at least doing the JRE posi mod.. or ZL1 rear end conversion. But i will be upwards of 900-1000whp then.

The rear will be fine if not drag racing all of the time. Just put the blower on with a alky control meth it and have at it. I see you're in Baton Rouge so what shop do you deal with? If you don't have one Futral Motorsports in Walker can get it done for you.

What cam are you running? It's definitely not boost friendly making 490.

No I know centri cams, the one I run is for a centri as well, but 490 is very NA oriented is all. It'll work fine, but I was just surprised by the NA number.

Gotcha, maybe try to figure that out if you can, it will help your tuner out.

If you can find the shop that did the work yeah, or the first owner. I wouldn't tear stuff apart to find out if I were you, it won't make a huge difference anyways.
