Default ProCharger upgrade

Any one know what ATI charge to upgrade their old head unit to a bigger one? Example I got a D1SC if I would do a upgrade to a F1R blower what would they charge? I know the F1 will bolt right up with the D1SC bracket, will the F1R required new bracket oe still can reuse the D1SC bracket? If anyone please chime in.

I don't think you can go from a D1-sc to an F1. The case has to be the same. Or at least, that's what they told me.

For example, you can go from a P1-SC to a D1-SC, but you CANNOT go from a P-600b to a P1-SC....even though the size of the blower looks to be the same:

Give them a call.

FYI, A P1 to D1-SC upgrade they quoted for me was ~$1100!!!

F1 is a direct bolt in from what I've hear...the case has the same bolt holes but the case is slightly wider.

I emailed Lonnie Pavtis, he says the F1R is still using the same bracket as the D series blower. It is a little bigger and the volute is .750 larger. If I am going to get the F1R down the road, I should not have any problem with it. I have cut up some of my radiator shroud already for more room where the plenum hat is. That leave me about 2" + more space. So if the F1R is thicker and I won't have a problem with hooking up the blower air intake. But that something I might looking into down the road of install a F1R.
