Holy crap is right!!!
I have the option of using any blower out there. I am a dealer for just about all of them. I have used all of them from a PSI to a roots to a Procharger. If I am building a new supercharged engine, it is getting a Whipple. The only time I use anything else is if it is an existing setup. I'm doing a Procharged engine right now, but only because the customer had the Procharger already. I don't have anything against the other blowers, most of them are great pieces. I just think the Whipple is the best all around blower. Like I said, I have my choice to use any of them, and I choose to run the Whipples.

I am the guy that is getting Eddie's Procharged motor. He is taking my unsightly Black motor and making it into a work of art. I am looking forward to the results. He has done a masterful job of taking some things I already had, saving me some cash and building me some big power. Before I started in on this I thought about scrapping my stuff and starting over with a Whipple. From a cost standpoint and from the standpoint that Eddie is able to build a cool looking setup from what I provided, I am happy with my current route. It is also something I have wanted to do for a while so I like the idea.
That being said, if I was starting from the beginning I would probably go Whipple. They build one cool looking system and the initial cost difference is not all that much. As one that has been around blower motors for a few years, I would highly recommend getting someone like Eddie to set you up with everything you need. I did my first blower project before I did business with Eddie. I learned a bunch on my own and probably got dang lucky on a few occasions. Since I have started in on having a custom motor built, I have learned exponentially more. That does not mean that I don't think someone that is pretty mechanically inclined can not install a whipple kit. I have had friends that have done that type of project with good success and I applaud them. It is just not for everyone.
In the end I am a big fan of boost.

The only thing I didnt like about the Pro Charger is the fuel pressure,I would rather do a bypass system and do the right map for a constant fuel presure.
