    They have a lot of the same features as far as looks go, but they're belt driven.

    Procharger is a brand name for a supercharger. Like Vortech or Paxton or KenneBell.
    2002 Tahoe 4.8 - soon to be turbo'd - SOLD
    1989 Mustang - LX Vert - 351W-TT - 2inches of dust covering it
    2012 Raptor - 497rwhp at 10psi
    If you aint breaking - you aint going fast enough

    Prochargers and Vortec superchargers are considered centrifugal super chargers. Magi's are considered roots style superchargers.

    God created turbo lag so nitrous trucks could have a chance.

    I gotta tell ya i love the sq version i have ,it super quiet ,you dont even know its under the hood.performs good but does have lag like a turbo,but keeps climbing unlike what i hear about the roots style superchargers.maggie etc.iats are nice with theyre air to water intercoolerI have also.They are pricey but theyre systems work good as a matching set .
