does anyone know what supercharger would be best for actual drag strip racing. which one has the most durability with the most boost?

ATI withought a doubt is the best, i cant stress it enough, epsecially for the price, u can get an ATI with 3 row intercooler at Motorsports Racing for $3,100. With the intercooler its not necessary to Retard timing as vortech,paxton require, all ATI asks is that u change your oil every 3,000 miles and spark plugs every 15,000 miles. ATI has warranties, and garantee at least 5mph and 1 1/2 second of 1/4 mile times, cant beat that!

vortech305 is absolutely correct. Although I don't have one yet, I have done a large amount of researching different companies and after reading ATI's brochures, I am convinced that they are the best. Like he said, you don't have to retard the timing cause of the intercooler and because of the intercooler maintaining lower temps, more boost can be run, etc... You can request info from them at www.procharger.com and they will send you a huge pack of stuff with some info just for your setup. Very nice.

88 IROC-Z -- 350 L-98, 700R4, Flowmaster, Edelbrock Headers, Catco Cat, K&N, MAF Sceens Removed, Airfoil, March Pullies, Comp Cams Magnum 1.6 Roller Rockers, Bosch Platinum Plugs, Accel 8.8 mm Wires, MSD 6AL, Hypertech Cap & Coil, Hypertech Chip, Hotchkis Strut Tower Brace

From my research the D-1SC is the supercharger to get. The question is where to get it and how much will you have to pay.

vortech305 do you have a number or internet address for this company? Have you pruchased a Procharger D-1SC?

No i havent purchased it but i have plenty of brochures and its my next Christmas Present the number to the place to get the ATI blower is Excessive Motorsports their # is 1800 930-9585, the tech line is 816 224-8849. The price for a 12psi ATI blower fitting L98 Camaro/firebird 88-92 Intercooled system is $2,988 not bad

ATI sent out a memo saying that they were not dealers for ATI effective 10/01/2001. They did not give any reasons to why the were not dealing anymore.

This price is for a P600 with a two-core intercooler. Add $300 for the self-contained P1SC. The D1 is priced higher (don't recall exact price). For the D1SC, add $100 to the D1 price. The best price I found was from David Back (dback@tenperf.com) at:

I paid $3387 for my D1SC which comes with a three-core intercooler. The kit includes a cone-style K&N filter which installs on the back side of the blower just above the exhaust manifold. It does not include the custom made airbox I fabricated to duct fresh air through my cowl hood. The kit also does not include the Superfueler system (three injectors straddled on top of the plenum in front of my airbox.

And yes Clee, I purchased one:

Couldn't be more content with a blower setup than this one.

i was looking at the d-1sc too. after about a week of price checking, the ad from excessive motorsports was the cheapest. i called them, told them what i wanted (d-1sc w/3 core) and the price came to about $3600. ended up getting it from tbyrne for $3460 shipped. that was with 5% off which ended a week ago (when i ordered it).
