Hey all, I did a search and couldnt find an answer so I apologize if this has been beat in the ground. I have a 2000 F150 5.4l. I want to supercharge it but am torn between the Troyer Charger and the ProCharger. They seem about the same price wise, I would love to hear comments abotu which you think is better.

Thanks!

 

I don't know what a Troyercharger is.

I've got a Procharger and love it. It pulls and pulls as the revs rise.

You can cost-effectively put a Lightning blower on as well, for lot of low-end, tire-roading torque.

 

thanks man, the Troyer Charger is the one on Tryoer Performance, i think it is an Allen Supercharger...

anyway, i heard the procharger doesnt really kick in in lower RPMS, are you saying it does? Would be nice if it really kicked in around 1500-2000 RPM...

 

oh yeah, sorry jrs4christ is my old name, i accidentlly created two logins...

 

I love my Procharger and it builds boost quick but if you want power at 1500 rpms you might want to think about N2O.
My $.02

 

thanks for the advise on the N20, but i think that is more risk and work than i want to fool with

In case it makes a difference, my truck has a 4" lift and 35" meats under it...seems the power at the lower RPM's would really be beneficial (troyer). But the extra $2k is hard to find...(procharger on ebay right now for $2400, troyer is $4500)

 

Roots (like a Lightning) or a twin-screw (like a Whipple) will provide high boost at low RPM.

Get a used Lightning supercharger, a kit from Mike Dunn (http://www.madenterprise.com/scparts.htm) for a good value for a roots-type blower.
