You can get them in reverse and standard rotation for that reason...

Wait 'til you hear it!

Procharger noise in the front, turbo noise in the rear. I used to ride around in tow haul mode all the time to listen to the Procharger wind up. LOL

Can't wait to get another one and put it on ZMBYKLR.

whats the dd characteristics of a procharger? is it something that you wouldnt have issues with driving 3500 miles cross country? or put 30k miles a year on one?

from what I've heard... Instant throttle response with the procharger. Should be mo issues as a daily driver. Danny and Matt from CED have first hand experience.

any body got a lead on a used reverse rotation centrifugal head unit?

imelmo · Feb 15, 2013

For a used one I'd probably check racingjunk.com.

i know what they do and how they perform... i was just wondering if they will stand up to the 30k miles i put on each year?

Danny, can you answer that for me i know you loved yours.. but how well would they hold up?

Ive dealt with plenty of supercharged VR6 VWs in my day, the cogged pulley/belt setup significantly increased reliability and got rid of all belt slip on those setups, they were all vortech units not procharger.

If its done right i see no issues with reliability.

strokin6L · Feb 15, 2013

like greg said... There's no reason why it wouldn't hold up.

I had problems with the teeth getting ripped off the cog belts. That part is a easy fix. broke a serp belt once. That isnt a simple fix ether. Takes more that simple tools to fix. That part sucks
