Ive got something in the works with one of the engineers over there. He emailed me back today and we are going to work out a deal to do back to back dyno results on the same mule. Just waiting to hear back from him again.

He did state that they are definitly available for upgrade though.

I am hoping this plays out.

Got another email from him this morning. Says they are indeed interested in working with me and to give him a call to work out the details. Just gave him a ring and left a voicemail. Hopefully I will know somthing today.

Looking forward to see how this stacks up on the same combo... Real world gains.

Procharger already has billet impellers. They take more HP to turn and create more heat though. This is why you see YSI cars going faster than F1R cars and typically making more power as well even though the F1R is rated for higher output than the YSI on paper.

I'm confused then, why would this be an "upgrade" if the billet impellers takes more HP to turn and creates more heat?

Billet impellers dont take more power to turn... A F1R takes more power to turn than a YSI due to its design...

This is because ProCharger has a lower efficiency cutoff used to rate supercharger flow. Vortech uses 60% adiabatic efficiency, Procharger 5x%? At lower efficiency you get less dense/hotter air while also consuming more HP from crank.

If it flows more or has a higher pressure rise then it will, unless efficiency improves... The old YSi already had good efficiency.

Honestly I'm turning my Ysi down when I get it because 1000+ is useless so besides having the coolest/newest/etc it wouldn't be a big difference for me. Seems people want stuff like this, but never even push it.

I just talked to them again and it looks like counter clockwise rotation may still be a little out. They have been mainly working on clockwise rotation like used on mustang, but upgrades are looking like the first to be done before whole units will be sold. I could have got RA but no guarantee on turn around. Supposed to call back Tuesday for possibly more info.
