he wanted forced induction so i jumped ontot rubos because they are more efficient. a single T-60 with intercooler and custom bar and plate for 3100, 350rwhp. comes with injectors, have to run tubing.

Please lets keep this on the topic of the FRPP s/c.

cool, will be interesting to see. sorry to get off topic. but the most complete turbo kit i have seen is from hellion power systems. and its 6100 for 99-04. but the FRPP kit has a good price and you know the install should be simple

FRPP is a good kit, i would recommend procharger, FRPP, kenne bell, and then Whipple
-just wanted to let you know, if you plan on doing a power upgrade to your car, and you want alot of power in the end, dont go for a cheap low hp blower at first, go for the big one, save longer for it, it will make you happier. Example- My uncle bought a procharger for his F-150, it puts it in the mid 14 second range (4 wheel drive lariat) he is now saving for a turbo because he wants more hp, it would of been easier to just start with the turbo and also would of been less work. best thing to do is get what u want the first time. i just wanted to tell u that to let u know that u would be much happier if you start with what u really want
PS- not saying the FRPP is not a good kit, but u should look into what u want int he end, if you are happy with what that will give u, then go for it.

Yeah we all know that prochargers, kenne bell's will be better in the long run. But a lot of people don't want 500+rwhp. Some people just want a little more, safe and reliable horsepower for a cheap price. This is where the frpp s/c comes in.

only certain KB kits u need to beef the internals, and normally it is the psi that counts, a T-67 turbo with 35psi needs beefed internals for example but at 8 psi doesnt, see what i mean? if he keeps it at 8psi the bottom end will be fine.

I agree w/ the logic behind dfhurleydude182. There are some of us that want a modest boost in power that is reliable. I will consider a ford racing 'charger after reading about it.

i agree with you both, but for the money involved, just make sure u get what u want off the bat so u dont end up regretting not getting a bigger better set-up.

Okay So Good Question, I know when you go to a Novi 2000 or a KB you have to beef your internals. With the FRPP do you have to do the same?

Thanks Doug
Yes this is more what I'm looking for. Its modest boost without really breaking the bank. I keep re-reading the article and everytime I'm more and more impressed with the FRPP supercharger. Its so streetable, its got the low end grunt I'm looking for but not the price of a turbo. No offense to turbo lovers!
Thanks to all for your input. The price of this unit also means that I will be able to get one within a year maybe two at the most. The other units were going to have to wait for about 3 or 4 years because of the prices.

the turbo sound is sweeter imo, i always loved the cobra whine until i heard a procharger and then the turbo, imo the turbos the best, then procharger then the twin screw is last. i love kenne bells, but i like the turbo and procharger sounds so much better.
