Turbo VS ProCharger TESTING Pt 4

[@kennyscott5636]

One of best small tire racer in business we all need to help his channel grow

[@Monkeymike68918]

I agree

[@jont8707]

I very much agree and one of the most down to earth guys

[@COYOTE_N8]

If you want to get technical he runs small and big tire lol but i do agree!

[@freedomfox8183]

Lol all the small tire guys are watching this series...bet on it ..while also saving me thousands potentially by choosing the right power adder this winter on the new fox build...I appreciate the hell out of you for sharing what your learning...not everybody would ...

[@waynebollentin989]

There is wrong power adder, just combinations that get setup poorly. Most importantly there are pros and cons to everything and no two cars are the same.

[@chrisbrosco7142]

The no prep community isn't ready for Ryan to get his hands on a Procharged Hemi. The ass whoopins would spread further and wider than they are now. 😂 You may not be able to out money the big dogs that show up to some of these races, but you sure out think them. Keep up the good work and thanks for taking us along for the ride and behind the scenes with these videos!

[@hotrod76.]

Yep. My favorite racer.!! Down to earth and no drama!!!

[@wstxiseeyou]

I'm thinking lighter rear springs or longer travel to help that tire shake.

[@edwardfairbanks5758]

This turbo vs. procharger series has been some of my favorite off-season content. Happy New Year, y'all.

[@wesringeisen4109]

We all knew it would be pro charger but good idea making a video series to prove your point. Love it.

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

I feel like Ryan is going to be the first driver to win a race via swapping power adders in-between rounds 😆

[@dwaynecossey4867]

lol. Pull up thinking you are racing a twin turbo set up and it’s supercharged. Lol.

[@williamward3492]

Man that boy is growin fast. Happy new years

[@danmyers9372]

This video just makes Joey’s 4.38 at 180 on the 26x8.5 tire even more impressive. Ryan is one of the best small tire NP racers around and he couldn’t get there on a 28x10.5 tire with a similar combo. This series was very educational and just shows how fast and even more importantly, how consistently fast the Procharger setup is.

[@big3fan916]

You have been really successful with the ProCharger set up , I would stick with it , the series has been fun to watch !

[@swissmochaj]

Ok now I get when y'all talk about the slick getting square while going down the track. Cool shot

[@a.jsipple7322]

Right, and you can see a considerable difference in tire pressure by the contact patch at idle , and thru the run. The left side was way more squared up.

[@RealSteelStreet]

@@a.jsipple7322due to equal tire pressure and Ryan’s weight on the driver’s side. They even that out with anti-roll bar and rear steer of the 4-link

[@johnstarkey5366]

Happy New Year 🎆 Thanks for excellent content. I’m excited to see your racing program and business grow.

[@chadriddle3517]

The series was cool to watch that someone that is not a racer but watches everyone’s content pretty much. I think the pro charger is the wise choice for the style racing. You do.

[@lifeofdeeb9632]

I saw KC In Montgomery at the Kye Kelly race and at first sight he’s a big guy and looks mean ah hell lol. But I was wrong, spoke with him for several minutes while he was doing maintenance and a quick chat when he was in the lanes. Great guy and was nice to meet you! Hope to see you running again in person next season

[@reubenbrock9703]

This car is a beast, turbos or blower it don’t matter. I can only imagine what would happen it you put bigger turbos on it. Much love y’all. Happy New Year

[@RoryMalloy]

I’ve really enjoyed watching the series and the fact it’s been sectioned out and we can see what your thought process is

[@Ada-zn3pw]

Been an awesome series Ryan/Meghan. Thanks for sharing your information Very interesting stuff. Henry is so big

[@kennynelson2269]

That tire shake on the first pass was violent.. that feeling sucks it'll shake your brain loose.. lol

[@kennynelson2269]

Ok❤second pass looked pretty rough as well.. lol

[@RealSteelStreet]

Rattle teeth loose 😳😬🤣

[@kennynelson2269]

@@RealSteelStreet it hurts!! Lol

[@Hammerback0]

Ryan, could you fabricate a splitter for the lower front nose piece to get some downforce on the front? Idk. Just a thought. Appreciate you sharing.

[@matthewcrampton5523]

Great series, really interesting. It does seem the pro charger combos are hard to beat. It’s good to see this content, working on the car and learning

[@brucehuff5566]

I wasn't surprised but absolutely loved the comparison. Very well done. Thanks. Stay safe

[@zx6rkawi09]

Newer turbos and better hot side setup would be true comparisons

[@bobpratt8224]

Awsome video..really liking ya showing some testing..really started wadding the tires onthat 3rd hit and ya caught quick!

[@ThomasHimm-ew5ye]

That second hit only shook the tire once better than twice on the first one you're going in the right directions it looks like

[@tygockley1292]

I would like to say happy new year to both of you and your family! And thank you both for taking your time. Ryan for videoing and Megan for editing. Greatly appreciated. Many states away here in Connecticut another blue bastion hell hole.

[@tbone67gthenderson78]

You guys will definitely find the combination you need and then for sure look out competition ! Happy New Year to you guys good luck this year.. 😎

[@kirbysisk7003]

Megans pumpn those video out for KC MAX Racing.

[@johnfinley4024]

Jb weld works pretty well for a China wall leak in a pinch. Spay with brake clean and wipe clean. Smear it on in the gap and over lap on block and intake. When you go to remove it it chips off with a gasket remover or chisel, screwdriver whatever.

[@the_hobby_cavethcracing444]

I'm so glad you mentioned the fact that with testing it could get there, that's what I was thinking, you and I both know that they can get there LOL! A pair of 88s or 94s...get there and then some! But I'm with Megan, Zoomies and that ping ping ping centrifugal supercharger hard to beat! The thunder!❤ Let's see what it does on the final hit!

[@mikemaccracken3112]

Thanks for the video Ryan and Meghan. Hank is getting big!! Happy New Year.

[@Usmc913]

Back to the blower. I'd take consistency over anything. It was nice to see the comparison though. Procharger and blower tech has come a long way.

[@LawsonLyons-j9b]

I think the blower is the way to go

[@dawnmclees]

Ryan your wife nailed it would be awesome if you could find a sponsor so you could get a Proline Hemi and some new Pro Chargers. Never hurts to dream.

[@timrayburn2461]

Thanks

[@Justins00ss]

I've always been a big procharger fan for a lot of the reasons you mentioned in earlier vids about how easy they are to tune and be consistent with.

[@evil16v1]

seems like a focus towards negative procharger/procharger effects may be needed. dampening? someplace to slip between procharger n crank during extreme rpm differences? smaller procharger +spray? Then again complication leads to less reliability as well.

[@Peteblz1]

This is why I was surprised cleetus went with the twin turbo on the eagles hemi. Not like you can't win races with TT, and some people say it can be faster when everything goes perfect. However, the procharger has been on top for consistency and wins for a few years now. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! ❤ awesome series of content yall!

[@drunge1]

Beater Bomb says "Hold my bear". LOL...

[@Shademax4273]

You really oughta give the cold gate boost control a try with wastegates pinned closed or blocked off.

[@dondotterer24]

We are founding out three bond works better than the right stuff or the GM 12378521. Might be harder to get apart.

[@jont8707]

Every body watching the wizard teach a how to drag someone's ass class and watching very closely 😂 thank you Megan for another banger 👍🏻

[@paullatham3411]

Pro charger is so much easier to tune. And with the different tracks you run it just makes sense to keep it simple.

[@SteveMacdaddy]

Ryan, Megan and Henry Happy New Year. I pray 2025 is AWSOME for you guys. Complete with many blessings 🙌

[@joshamy39]

That baby is a cute little feller lol looks very sleepy

[@Wardaddy1124]

I’d love to have a 481x or hemi all I have is a big bore spaced sbc with twins and parts are hard as hell to get for it and exspensive. I’m looking maybe to get a big block Chevy maybe. And the test you did has me thinking I should switch to procharger.

[@LawsonLyons-j9b]

The right tire really shakes when you take off that quick

[@georgiastreettruck4495]

Go ahead and look at the ring gear after that test session. I would be surprised if it wasn't starting to crack yet.

[@uncledemonsgarage9981]

great little series yall, it would be really awesome if someone was watching this and reading the comments and sponsored Ryan a Proline Hemi, or bigger turbos or offered some R&D or experimental testing products :D

[@bradpittman5075]

Very cool. For informational purposes and for content, you should document the reliability of the procharger for this year. I’d be curious to see how reliable they are. Good luck!

[@Scout_Shitbox]

They aren’t bad. They just really don’t like chopping the throttle which can be an issue

[@jonnycarrick7552]

Hi from 🇬🇧 just wondering if you’re rear tires are the same pressure as it seams the passenger side is flatter than the driver side. Anyhoo love you guys 🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉

[@ashleyflowers2745]

If you get a hemi, I’d be interested in the intake to elbow set up off the 540. Thanks.

[@mikec857]

Couple of turbo cars last year put you on the trailer you were saying, I forgot the race , what are they doing your not, good luck

[@reubenbrock9703]

If Henry was older, he would be Logan’s twin. He’s getting so big already.

[@dwaynecossey4867]

His g grandma was almost 6 ft tall. His grandma is almost 6 ft tall. His daddy is over 6 ft tall. If that kid doesn’t hit 6ft at least then I would be surprised.

[@jordanhoward100]

Old school guys use to read backpressure off the header colletor ford or chevy usually 30-36 inches back and they would cut em off thats more hp an low end torque.

[@deondimicks8159]

The best power adder is gonna be the one you stick with and work on

[@thomasbingham3793]

Always enjoy watching! After watching this one, I noticed either the rear-end camera was tilted or there was more down pressure on the left rear tire? It looked squatted more than the right. Just my opinion. I was hoping to meet you at shadyside last year but never saw you!

[@stackindimesracecars3924]

Several times I've had a 3055s shake worse adding small air pressure change.

[@reapermech]

tires are really sucking the centers in on the early passes wow

[@BoWhiteRacing]

Love the information. Thank you Meghan for the video uploads. I do have one question. If you only had one rear shock sensor what side would you put it on?

[@timothyedwards1468]

What about the air in the slicks. You should try a little bit more air pressure

[@lapsteels8]

my favorite racer

[@heathen_7]

My wife was pissed too when I took the Procharger off my daily F150 lol. She missed the sound, but it was excessive for a dd

[@rkcurry]

if you get the turbo lined out and running at or near full potential it very well could put up pbs, however clearly, the procharger is far more consistent, and less margin for error

[@RT40_Korona]

Looks like it's hitting the tire too hard, wadding it and making it tyre shake? Maybe a little less AS and a little more in the leave.

[@johngoodman7160]

I could not quit looking at the chemtrails in the sky

[@deangelodillon4031]

I thought I was the only one 😂 look like they was playing tic tac toe with no O's 😂

[@shoresharp8349]

Freaking insane amount of them dang

[@braxxtonn]

Bet it was foggy that night. Canada is covered in those trails as well. If trump doesn’t put a stop to them or talk about them he is bought and paid for !

[@Ty_N_KC]

We need some shirts that say KC Maxx! Got me running around these KC streets in a Firebird shirt. :)

[@ryanoakes5219]

Need more testing to have a better assessment

[@stephencarter1442]

I learned a Secret From PFI Honda Bond is Missile strength. On China walls It solved blow outs. Happy New Year Family!

[@RogerMoore-ne6hu]

Yes I agree he is one to beat and he’s there due to his hard work and testing. I wish SRC would put out more videos like kcmaxx and a few others.

[@dawnmclees]

@RogerMoore-ne6hu KCMAXX and SRC are two totally different programs. Ryan is light years ahead of Billy in the knowledge department and overall hard core racing Ryan is what the race world calls a killer. Billy not so much. Billy’s thing is having fun and flipping cars and cruising around like I said before two totally different programs.

[@chriskalthoff1772]

Still need more tire pressure go up one more pound

[@Jenkins137]

I’d like to see twin 88mm Garrett g47-1850s on it , or you could run a set of Similar Pulsar Turbos to save money on them .. they are exact Garrett copies and they are great turbos for the price .. I run them on all the turbo cars I’ve ever owned.. I’d run a set of 2” or larger primary tube shorty headers with the turbos mounted back by the firewall on each side .. then I’d run a single e gate in the center of your 2 charge pipes before connecting in to the intake manifold , and right after the e gate run 2 50-60mm bov .. one on each charge pipe .. then you can move your bullhorns farther back on the car to help with weight transfer and downforce , place the horns on each side , right about where your mirrors would be normally , back behind the firewall .. then you’ll have instant boost response with the e gate on charge pipes , to help spool up the 88mm units on the 540 , they’ll flow almost 2000hp each , and you will be able to control the system with the e gate and the 2 bov s .. everyone is different by all means , but I feel this would be the best way to control the bbc at the 60ft and on out .. be able get some weight right off the front bumper moving the turbos back farther , and maybe it’ll help plant the rear tire more instead of getting up on top of it .. and I know the boost control will be there with the single e gate connecting the charge pipes and the 2 bov after .. basically same style set up Mark Mickie is using on his hemi Pro mod , he claims this set up is by far the most superior set up he’s ever ran , and the e gate set up is top notch for control and instant boost response at the 60ft .. I feel like a lot of guys sleep on this set up and they def need to give it some thought because the fastest door cars in the world are running this set up rn ..wish you best of luck with your build and hopefully you can upset some guys in 2025 !

[@Nchomeboy1]

What is the difference cost of maintenance between pro charger and turbo combination?

[@levimattingly9994]

I know the firebird is a purposely built no prep car but would be awesome to see how fast Ryan could go on some radials 🤔🤔

[@jacobmckay7844]

Why does it look like the rollcage is made of the heaviest shit possible lol

[@lincoln7390]

Especially driver containment area lol

[@jacobmckay7844]

@ looks solid almost

[@prestonedmonds4128]

I knew it! 😅 I felt like you would make that choice by listening to parts 1-3.

[@TT64NOVASS]

Looks like the slicks are cupping.

[@michaelwynne4346]

I feel like the NPK guy's have shown the Procharger/ Supercharger has been the way to go unless a big tire or a small tire makes a big difference with what you're doing. Damon Merchant made the BBC Procharger combination work, i don't know what the deal was with that Block he was using but it wouldn't be an issue for you.

[@hillbillywes100]

I just hope that Pro Charger gets their parts reliability game better! also zoomies and flames are cool

[@jasonstormoen]

They are actually pretty reliable.

[@jsp5407]

It’s only 1st test session don’t give up on it yet

[@DJRIKYP]

KC its time for a 632ci bbc with a procgarger or a 959ci lol they will be faster next year so you need to step up the game even billy is steppin up for next year lol

[@michaelwynne4346]

Engine's over 570 CI don't seem to work well with any kind of forced Induction, check out the size of other cars with forced Induction.

[@joshamy39]

Notice the sky? Alot of trails

[@brandontriche9579]

Call jimmy dale and get a little wing. Put it on the front of the car to keep the nose down. Lol

[@ThomasHimm-ew5ye]

A tire shake was pretty bad I bet that felt good in there

[@loganmallet3291]

What kind of hp vs tq dofferences do you see between power adders ?

[@connerschouten1679]

What’s with the shop rag on the driver side of the rear end?

[@Mario-w1q1m]

So twin turbo is set up or procharger

[@scottmienheartt2331]

Whats up with the rag wrapped around the housing

[@marpecora2976]

How would it be either twins

[@jfarm_1311]

Could you do a price comparison for maintenance for pro charger vs turbos? It seems like you pro chargers have a lot more upkeep and eat fins

[@TDIETZ22]

That would be hard to do as part breakages are mostly random. But it's no secret the prochargers are harder on parts.

[@jfarm_1311]

@ I understand that. Just seems like he had a lot of pro charger issues this year and they aren’t cheap. Pay to play I guess

[@TDIETZ22]

@jfarm_1311 you would know better than I would there. I've been following him for awhile but don't always take the time to watch the videos. Thos big head units are definitely expensive. I run a little D1SC it's very durable. His are a totally different ballgame

[@mikemyers1721]

Right on!

[@jonsetzer9556]

Just try working with the 4 link instead of moving the engine forward

[@MarkFetsko]

nice

[@Greybhm]

Every time I see that dusty dash, my OCD kicks in and I have to run to the garage, grab a rag and some cleaner and look at mine ….

[@jsp5407]

Different turbos possibly, dam that quick lol no more turbos

[@rondunlap4628]

hey Ryan is there a plastic bag wrapped around Drivers side real axle?

[@jsp5407]

When and where can I get the new kc maxx hats ?

[@billhaag9453]

Is that a towel wrapped around the left axle? Is it leaking?

[@ruthlessronniethemechanic5639]

I will always like turbochargers over procharger. Just my opinion. My little s10 makes almost 2000hp with a twin turbo sbc. No where near a bigblock but i hold my own.

[@Stevesbe]

Are those 26s ? Beater bomb got you switching back to turbos to take his record

[@jsp5407]

Not to sound dumb but is there a reason why not hearing more of the turbos ! Sound while making passes ?

[@louisedwards5487]

So are turbos easier on parts than the procharger
