F-1A Procharger Build

Decided that I will document this build now that I have started the real modifications to my Z on the road to 1k RWHP that will take course over this year.

I am currently patiently waiting a shipping number for my F-1A; what is the current estimated wait time for these?

Seems like who you ordered it from would be the one to ask.

I would call ProCharger or if you ordered from a shop call them. If you are having a problem getting it please PM me and I would be glad to help you..

Just to clarify, I am having no issues with the order process, I was told 2-3 weeks lol. I am just as impatient as can be with any car part order.

Plus I wanted to create this thread for documentation on the process.

I know that feeling. Just wait till everything is done and they call you to come get it. It's like going to pick up another new car. Good luck!!

This is still an undecided factor, and I plan on only bolting on the PC for now.

I'll go cam+meth at a later date.

Why? Your car is going to feel slower. Just do it all at once

Because it will not be as fun of a build for my YouTube channel, otherwise.

I believe the procrharger makes 100 more hp at the stock boost level. It might actually feel faster due to not as much instant torque to spin the tires.
