all depends on who you are... I guess having a Gsxr 1000 doesnt help make the car feel faster either.

Worst idea ever.

I would never suggest a Procharger to anyone. If you are set on an SC, I would suggest the Vortech. But if you aren't set, do a Greddy TT. Seems like 90% of our customers with SC's end up dumping them for twins within 12 months. The SC's just don't have the trq and immediate response of the twins.

I didn't know Procharger still made a 350z kit...haha.

BTW, honest question, but what exactly makes the procharger such a bad kit vs vortech?

the belt layout lends itself to the mounting plate flexing and snapping belts. the actual SC'r unit is nice, as procharger setups make sick power on V8 domestics. Theres also little to no room for a filter.

Just seems people cant tune past 12psi cuz the belts snap. Obviously if a solution was found, it would just as viable an option.

their original EMS solution didnt adjust timing, so many motors were popped, but that was a long time ago.

Bumping, wondering how the mileage is treating everyone on stock blocks? I'll be at 100K at the end of the summer and I'm thinking about twins after a leak down/compression test.

Just hit 102k miles, completely stock block boosted for just over 7k now. Beat the sh*t out of every day. But that means nothing for the chances of your block holding together, all engines and tunes are different
