Default Procharger customer service

Follow up. I've purchased and installed many pro chargers on several vets and hotrods that I own. Customer service I got today was insulting. We do not install them we make them. Well you made the dam bov pipe you should know something about if it will fit or have to be altered. Thanks for the past procharger. Car is a 2016 Z.

I'm pretty sure ECS has that figured out. Don't they have the 2200R for Z06 cars? Regardless what I meant was Prochargers response was in poor taste. I like having a shop like ECS there to help and address concerns which they have always done for me. Hope the OP gets it sorted out.

The kit can be made to work but you need to put a std intake on the car and preferably an ati or innovators balancer since the std pulley will not fit the LT4 balancer. Its a costly swap once the intake is added.

Funny thing is Prochargers I take makes less power compared to the stock c7....
At least it looks nice

Edit: I should clarify the above really....
If you're keeping the engine RPM below 7k roughly then hit better off with the stock intake...

You can use adapter plate or just drill and tap the heads...

Runner length on the factory intake is roughly 10" and the Procharger intake is roughly 6" with a larger CSA too..
I have yet to pull a back to back test, but a friend of mine has and lost tq and hp everywhere...

Makes sense based off manifold design....
If I had an rpm band between 6 to 8k Procharger intake would probably perform better.. But the average 5-7k build on a street setup I would personally choose the factory intake

Not that I've seen.. But I've seen bungs "glued" in for direct port nitrous but I would want something more secure than that..

Seen something cool not long ago.. A TB plate with twin ID850 injectors from ID with a seperate computer to injector fuel

No.

My LT1 Procharger with the smallest unit and 8 psi makes 570 to the wheels. same as a z06. Z06s with prochargers aren't going for low boost. the stock z06 1.7L supercharger caps out at about 750rwhp. People are using prochargers to get into the 900s and beyond.

He is talking about the Pro intake manifold and its characteristics . The runners are very short and that effects the lower rpm torque blower or not. The shorter the runners usually the higher the rpm range needs to be.

Your name is like nuclear fallout in the performance industry dude, no one wants anything to do with you. Every issue you had with your C5 you blamed EVERYONE but yourself..
