as with any centrifugal charger ther will be some parasitic power loss....hell thats with any charger generally speaking. but before the procharger came out the only advantage jackson had of vortech was that there was no rod connected to the pulley side of the motor. most complaints with vortech chargers was that the belts could not grip the pulleys. they were slipping and making ppl be slower to gain their power. the procharger mounts on the pulley side of the motor and according to their site gain 50-100% more power. this civic was in a magazine i had a while back. it is a fairly moderate set-up and had very impressive gains if you ask me:

this car gained 113 whp with this kit on a b16. with any super charger kit or turbo you will have your pros and cons. but you gotta pick the lesser of 2 evils. if i had to go supercharged it would be this kit hands down. its pricey but hte numbers speak volumes......most of which is due to the intercooler and fuel mods that come with this kit. the same number could in essense be made with a jackson but how much extra would you spend??? plus the location of install is just a work of beauty! your car would appear all motor with the exception of the fmic....oh yea and the number you lay down!

if i was not turbo this thing wouldbe on my car no doubt. i dont know what this guy has for money for this project so that gonna dictate what he can or cannot do. if he can afford this procharger kit i say go for it. i would love to see one in person. if he cant for half the price a drag gen III kit or a turbonetics kit will provide enough ass for anyone to be happy with their boosted set-up.

thanks for the help... i saw you said if i dont have the money to get a gsr go with a ls. i am selling my present car for about 8500 and using that for the next... i have the money saved up for the turbo or whatever i decide to get.. i want something that i can drive everyday functunately but still have some power when i want it... any ideas on a good forum i can visit to do more research?
