nice

damn that vette got smoked.....BY A RUSTANG

How could you tell who was who inthat crap video.

Yea and the Mustang didnt take off on the second honk or anything :rolleyes:

No surprises here. The PTK mustangs are pretty impressive. don't get me wrong, I love vettes, but Procharger is old technology in contrast to the turbo systems out there on the market. And as much as I don't care for mustangs, I would have no problem driving this one. Good kill!!!!

the king is dead.

A jump makes all the difference in the world too.

A jump or not, the PTK stang would have still handed this vette its a**! Simply no contest. And besides, I cant see the stang being so far ahead in the first place. We need a rematch to settle this one.

Well I'm pretty sure it's the same guy around Cincy on the forums. Ackbar. He's on Stangbangerz.com and I think turbomustangs.com.
I like LT1's and LS1's, but turbo-anything is just plain sick. Jump or not, if you go to turbomustangs.com and read, even a little old 5.0 with a medium turbo is pushing over 600 hp.

... but Procharger is old technology in contrast to the turbo systems out there on the market.

Care to explain that? What's so new about about turbo technology? Effective yes - technogically new though... don't think so.

With the advent of VATN turbos effectively replacing the wastegate, electronic boost controllers( when was the last time you adjusted the boost on your blower from the drivers seat). And yes, I take back the old technology statement, more like WAY less efficient and antequated technology. When was the last time a supercharger company made a major technological advancement??? Answer, not in a long time. Oh they came out with self contained head units. THey just spend millions on advertisements. Im not saying superchargers dont work, just that they dont work as well as a turbo. I actually owned a Procharger and liked it. But it didnt hold a candle to a properly setup turbo system. You obviously are a blower fan, so I can see this arguement going nowhere fast.

You're drawing the wrong conclusions and fast. My daily driver has a turbo (2005 Legacy GT) and my best friend has twin turbos in his Lt1 powered 68 camaro. My s-trim was bought used as a neat/cheap replacement for 1 of the stages on my previous 2 stage nitrous system. It does it's job, but it is by no means the most effecient

But I can see we don't agree with what constitutes major technological advances. The core technology has been around for decades. I'd consider the e-controller more of a convienence than an advancement.

Now turnabout is fair play, so when was the last time you adjusted the boost on your turbo from the drivers seat? Doesnt it have to run first??? :p

Man you are just bustin my balls arent you!! I hit the button on my e-boost the other day, but it didnt do anything :cry: On a serious not though, i do drive many of my friends turbo cars which have the same or similar boost controls to mine and they are quite nice. You do have to admit that variable geometry turbine technology is pretty trick( although not major in your book). and I would agree that the electronic boost controller is more of a convienence device if it weren't for the fact that it can be programmed for varying boost in diffrent gears and can be set to your personal prefference from the driver seat. This still beats a wrench, pulley and belt and busted knuckles required to change the boost on a blower. and there is NO inherent proctection built into that system but your right foot. This is like the STS vs Front mount arguement(front mounts are better, my 2 cents) we will agree to disagree. My grandfather once told me this," You have the right to you opinion, and I have the right not to listen.

Is anyone else here as lost as I am? My head hurts....it feels like I'm studying for an old trig. exam while I try to understand the last three or four posts.
