Question Which blower to buy?


I'd like to buy a blower for my 97 Z28. It has 60000 troublefree miles on it, I've had it from new, only modification is a SLP Catback and airfoil.

Since there not that many fast cars in Denmark, I'm not necessarily going for maximum boost. And the car is a daily driver, also in winther.

My priorities are:
-cheap
-easy to install
-low whine
-requires no other modifications (except plugs?)
-approx +100HP
-sold at a place international enough to ship to me in Denmark

Which blower would you recommend and why? Thanks

You are going to get a million different answers. Basically, the most popular blowers for our cars is Vortech, ATI, and Powerdyne. I'm going ATI but a buddy in the car club is having success with Vortech. I went with ATI because I like the air-to-air intercooler concept.

Hmm...just my .02, either ATI or Vortech. Stay away from Powerdyne. I haven't heard anything good about em. I myself have my car in the shop as we speak getting an S-Trim put on. I went with that b/c that's what I found used (I'm poor). I would say do some searching in the Forced Induction section, you will find lots. Good luck

For your needs, I'd suggest the basic ATI p1sc with single intercooler. Don't know what altitude you're at there, but if it's close to sea level and/or if you can't get good gas, I'd think about alky/water injection. If cost is really a concern, you could do without the intercooler if you run the alky/water injection. JMO...
