Which S/C ???
I am looking for advice on a S/C. The car is a pretty much stock A4, (cat back exaust and intake) and I am looking to spice it up a little. Not looking for massive HP and upgrades, just to make a little boost and install a blow off valve. I was thinking about the Procharger!!! Any suggestions would help. Thanks

No racing, maybe an occasional 1/4 mi trip in the future, but nothing really competitive. Looking for reliability as i drive the car a lot. Would like to maintain mostly stock car otherwise. I want to keep hp under/around 500 to hopefully prevent tearing everything else up. Is this realistic?

Judging by the torque numbers, I'd say we were on our way to about 550rwhp had we not stopped early. I'd say the basic P1SC kit by Andy or ECS would get you what you want. Reliablity is great. Power is great.

Just kidding....
Seriously though, if your on the east coast, talk to Chris or Doug at East Coast Supercharging, they are a supporting vendor and are top notch. I have delt with them personally many times before, and will many times again.

Give me a call. There are a number of shops around the country that can install my system for you.

I just got the ATI P-1 s/c from A&A on my zo6 and it is scary fast. (I drove out to cali from kansas to have andy install it and only got one speeding ticket 
.Andy had it done in three days while I took the kids to disney. Car runs like stock until you hit it and then you better hold on. The fuel and boost gauges look nice but I don't know how you have time to look at them as I am just trying to keep the car in a straight line. 
. I have the magnacharger s/c on my other c5 and it hits early and hard but doesn't keep pulling like a freight train like the ATI s/c , that's why I am changing the stock pulley on the mag and putting the ECS alky kit on.
Both s/c are great and you will enjoy either one. Andy's service was top notch, drive in and drive out, no worries, great product.
