Default Finally Procharged!

Installing this P1SC Procharger was my winter DIY mod that seemed to drag on for one reason or another. There was nothing really difficult with the install, just some tedious task that were well worth the time and effort. The finishing touches were completed a few weeks ago and since then been enjoying the extra bit of HP.

Thanks to my wife and 13 month old daughter for their patience during this project. Thanks to Forum member Philsy, former owner of this SC, for answering alot of my questions, ECS, for a great baseline tune, and ATI Procharger for their customer support.

Specs:
P1SC-1 Procharger
4.10 Pulley
42 lbs injectors
Lingenfelter fuel pump with Magnavolt booster
A&A over the radiator intake mod
Ported LS6 intake
Air pump delete
Autometer fuel and boost A pillar gauges

Under 2500 rpm, it feels a bit stronger than stock but above 2500 rpm it has some scary pull to redline. Your Viper must be some kind of ride with your Paxton. Gotta love these Centrifugal blowers.

Congrats on your new procharger and I see you have a 97-98 setup, the best stock setup for fueling and I would stay under 6k until you get a tune, since you are logging what is you FP and AFRs under boost, that will tell you if you have the fuel or to lean

Congrats! Boosted power is a lot of fun. But it's also addictive. Once you start, you always want more power. Enjoy it!
