View Full Version : FI for C5
There are two complete ProCharger kits on Corvette Forum for sale right now. On freshly rebuilt for $3200, and one with 15K miles for $2800 that ProCharger will freshen up for $600 making them about the same price.
The $3200 even comes with a crank pinning kit, and all that is needed is the supporting fuel mods (pump, injectors).
I can't believe how much these things are going for now. I would have seriously picked one of these up if my car was built around the use of one of these units.
But my current cam along with my high CR would not work well at all with one of these.

The guy that bought my '94 GT sold the Novi 2000 and only got like $1800 for it. Resale on superchargers suck. I paid $1473 for my first one new and sold it for $1300 but I had used it 2 years for $173. Im about to buy another one but Im not paying more than $1300 for a used S-trim with a cog setup and powerpipe.
Boost is addictive...it was with the Cobra that I had.
Oh well....I think sometime in the future, I will be looking at a completely different engine for my car. Just have to find the right deal.
I remember about 6 months ago on that same forum, a speed shop in NJ had a low mile C6 Z06 built engine with a supercharger for sale that was making an insane amount of power.
They wanted ~ $15K for the whole setup.

Wow thats a lot. I sold my white car for $7000 he sold the blower for like $1800 and put a $4000 turbo kit on. Its making over 600whp on pump gas for $9200. I kinda wish I had kept it now but at least I know what parts to buy.

With my current setup, I have to much compression for any boost. If I were to go that route in the future, the engine would be coming out as well. :)
