powerdyne and paxton...paxton is often measured up to vortech and procharger but I heard powerdynes are pieces of sh*t.

the paxton will run a couple to a few hundred less than vortech and procharger but the powerdyne is considerably less but as the saying goes, "you get what you pay for".

my head unit was for a foxbody 5.0, (needed a rebuild) I built all the brackets and such. I got lucky and found a new elbow for a lt1 powerdyne kit and used that. boost is about 4.5#s max I think I can get more out of it by reduing my piping and getting rid of massive belt slip (I just realised it was that bad, found belt dust all over) and I am running very very rich(I found pretty nice because I can rev and a-holes stopped too close behind me at lights and litterally cover there hood and bumper with black spots) I have a picture of my setup in the above sticky

and you can't here the s/c at all! you can hear the air filter sucking tons of air but, that's your only clue
