Ok so I'm having a big debate with someone... They aware that installing a Procharger on a 2V Mod motor is easier than installing some shorty headers????????

I vote for the blower install being more difficult and time consuming. Also the car is being converte to an entire 8-rib set-up so things have to be aligned properly...

Which do you guys think is more difficult so this guy will understand...?

if you have a lift and some 10 foot jackstands unbolt the motor mounts and do your work, hands down headers are easier, super chargers involve oil feed and return lines, much more involved.

Headers are a pain but straight forward. A blower install is more technical. I would have to say the blower install because there's is far more to do .

It was just bolting on a procharger head unit to motor. No oil lines need to be ran because it is a Procharger,, no intercooler, No belts, no power pipe, no discharge tube. It was bolting on a head unit vs shorty install on a 4.6. Don't even know why he decided to post it.

If its installing just the head unit I'd say the charger is easier...

Pro charger would be much easier.

What's harder and more time consuming to install? Headers, supercharger or a heater core? I'm going with heater core. [Razz]
