I just purchased a procharger for my dodge dakota 5.9 r/t 2000. has anyone put one on and if so was the power gain worth the money spent and was it a huge power gain???

 

I have more questions then answers, but what did you pay for it? I have been looking at paxton chargers myself, but the procharger claims 55-60% gain as opposed to 40% from paxton using only 1 more PSI.

its hard to answer if the power gained was worth the money spent when you don't specify what you spent too, but chargers generally make very large gains for the amoutn of work done to the motor. To gain the same HP from just engine components without boost you would be doing alot more work.

The only issue I have heard about with boost over 6 psi is head gaskets being a bit too weak. I won't have that issue as I am building the motor from scratch, but just a bolt on I don't know.

 

i paid 5000 for it. and i wanted to know if anyone has put one on yet what the hp gain was.
