Switched From Whipple To Procharger!!! 

The fact you are so diligent and have the attitude / awareness that something was wrong and you could but wouldn’t let it leave your shop (“couldn’t sleep at night”). Dude. That speaks volume about your shop/ business. I admire the hell out of that. We need more of this across the board!

Fran stayed with it until the desired outcome was achieved!!! KUDO'S, love to see him on it like that! Respectfully, Seth

Kudos to Fran for the weight loss. You look like a new human. Way to go!!

Making it right. This is the way! Great job!

The attention to the boost drop off and not calling it a day for that car is the exact reason why I would ship my car to these guys over taking it to anyone local. Always respect the respect RPM has for their customers to not half ass anything.

I love the way you show the engine data in real time during the dyno runs. Fascinating to watch the boost and air/fuel ratio during the run. Brilliant!

I’m not even a big GM fan but the way you guys act with each other, the sarcasm, type of humor, etc. I’m a big fan of that bc it reminds me so much of my shop that I work at😂😂😂 I subscribed in a heartbeat after the pics of poor old boys car that got quintessentially chopped💀🥲

$900 for complete powertrain removal and disassembly is quite the bargain.

Fran is my #1 choice Tuner on the web love his style

Bill airing out my cars misfortune lol. damn it look a long time for it to make a video lol. Cars fixed. it only took what 2 full ass years. shoulda sent it to rpm when i had the chance. Much love

Glad to see a shop/person with integrity! Get that belt right!

I loved watching you guys take the time to make it right and figure out the problems great job. That is what good service is all about.

Been viewing for a while and I’d love to get a car built by y’all someday. Proper planning

Man...fran looks lean and mean. Im a fitness fanatic and i know the dedication that takes- great job Fran!

Slow is steady, steady be fast. Good eye Garrett. Thing is wicked, great job and build

Great episode really enjoy how you detail it step-by-step

Congrats I was so excited to hear it start! Can’t wait to see the next one!

Awesome video guys! Alot of work for some big power. Love it🎉

That "HUUUUAAHH" caught me off guard. LMAO 💀

That was a difficult build. It’s a learning curve. Great work 😎😎😎👍👍👍

Erics a good dude . Like how he tries teaching the new kid . He knows his shit makes him a good guy to learn from

You guy’s are amazing great work to all of you 😎👍🍺

What was power curves like vs the Whipple

Seems like a "blow the tires off even from a 40 roll" kind of car. Wild. What does it do on a mustang or hub dyno SAE corrected and whatnot?

I cld tell a bunch of crazy stories about customer cars. BTW the customer is very happy with his TT Camero you guys remote tuned for us(Frazz). I hope he takes your advice and get rid of the cats on that car. Procharger over Whipple is probably going to upser some people but I love it🎉

I wish there were more shop owners/mgrs who thought the same as you. I would not know how to act working for someone like that. I currently have a pretty good boss as well as a good owner rn but yeah.

Fran! The weight loss looks fkn amazing on you, Braddah! Keep up the hard/amazing work on yourself first and these badass cars as well! Killin' it Brah! Much Aloha! 🤙🏽

I’m just in the middle of the video, but what about a boost leak? I dealt with my fair share of belt/tensioner issues on my Whipple car, but the pro charger has a ton of extra silicone couplers and intercooler as potential leak points

Great work guys

Damn Fran, looking good bro!

That v wagon that’s been in bunch of videos is a dream. Hope to see a video in it.

Dude with the laptop in car looks like he's gaining the weight back 😮

Hell yeah! I would love to take my ss to you guys for my next work (416 stroker, upgraded fuel system, high ram w/ ports, and F-1A...) but y'all are probably booked out a year +. 😢

I would trust my car with these guys without any worries and Im very particular.

What was the reason that the boost kept falling off?

Nice showing at World Cup guys.

The aussie part might be the funniest thing I've heard on this channel 😂

Why's the intake air filter in the rear?

Congrats on making it to the finals at world cup...👏😎👍

I'm really curious about what failed in the whipple to add all that slop at the driven pulley.

Well, at least you can say that you didn't have to turn the engine upside down to make it work. LOL

What procharger is this I couldn’t tell in the video? F1-a or f1a-94

Wow Fran lost a lot of weight good for him !

Fran what is your opinion on running a Wastegate on centrifugal blower setups. Been reading up on them but wanted to hear your opinion

I would think that a Whipple would make more torque under the curve vs the snail procharger. Wouldn't the Whipple feel faster? I did forward to the dyno section. Probably missed something here.

Is that HP to the crank or to the wheel?

Awesome 👍

More options and more potential out of a Procharger

Love the video but for the mechanic to constantly talk down on the camera guy pisses me off.

What intake is that?

Do they just work on GM stuff? I’ve never seen any Fords or Dodge vehicles getting any work done there

Congrats on making the finals at World Cup too i wanted u to win so bad lol

The air filter and intake tuning heat soak for sure. Gale banks would have nothing to do with that and I’m sure that’s killing air density

Where are these guy's located at??

Damn son Fran looks like a teen again

To add to the guys who are wondering about the insults being thrown at others in the shop that may not know as much. Obviously, you apply for a job you know where and what they do. You HAVE to have some job knowledge. I’m a fairly new DIY guy, I’m not “into cars” and documenting a huge shop but I know that I should know what a trunion is. Also, work ANY job long enough and have a helper/ new hire that doesn’t pick up on shit. I’m patient as all get out, after a few months I’m spitting fire tf are they supposed to do. Third, if you meet fire with fire, it’d chill. Cat doesn’t know enough about the hobby he’s into to even counter on the basic level. No knock against the camera guy but if you wanna level a playing field you learn what you need to about what you’re dealing with. It’s not a Disney editing job.

Lol where u get the monster lemonade 🤣 4 pack from lol

What did it make wth the Whipple??

That’s crazy

What is with the almost VTEC sound that hits at 3k rpm?

Kid needs to pay attention and just take in all the info he throws at him and understand its not easy to teach someone while doing a not easy job !

I would imagine the Whipple setup breathes better than the procharger with that cold air placement

13:55 at 3300 rpm can see the belt jump around

Orange camero has some disturbing noises...back end of pull... Wonder how it's doing since visit...

Awesome vid guys!!

I would say NO, it came to you together and I will pick it up, when it’s put back together!!!

Do you work on 2017 Audi RS7?

Seen how the sausage is some times made.

😮uuu... that hurts.

Not so sure I would take off a Whipple for a procharger I've had a procharger and they're just a pain in the ass😊

Let’s fuckin go

I’m not a v8 guy but I always thought the lifters were In The head . An I work on DOHC motors 😅

Crazy how the very experienced mechanics who 100% specialize in GM vehicles, specifically LS/LT platforms, know everything inside and out and act like a person who is learning this stuff should automatically know it all like them. If their annoyed about the videos and social media stuff then they should work somewhere that doesnt operate this way. Its funny at times but more makes them look like a holes who are actually ignorant as they dont want to spread their knowlege in a productive way. Not the greatest look overall to the shop. Plus the way they talk about peoples cars at times that are paying a premium to have them worked on there.

This sport is not cheap you have to pay to play wanting to get it down cheaper could cost more then what you would have spent doing it right the first time.

Yeah, boost is coming on later for some reason

What HP/TQ numbers did he make with the Whipple setup?

Curious why he wasnt happy with the whipple

Brrrrpppppp

I want the Whipple it looks better..

😎👌🏽👍🏽🙌🏽💖💯

Don't think for a one second that all shops have RPMs level of dedication and persistence when it comes to getting you what you paid for. I live in the area and I speak from experience. Keep up the great work gentlemen.

In my opinion this is kinda sad,about 15years ago I was making 862hp with a 1.8l 4cyl so I would just think a v8 boosted,meth,e should make a ton more

Too high psi FTW on LT port injection!!

They just ripped his car apart and handed it back in pieces.. This is a car owners worst nightmare!! This it what happens when the pro's Like, National Racing in VA says 13K for a Whipple and a tune, and your buddy say's Hey I know someone who can do it for half that? Don't listen and Just keep saving and go to the pro's shite they send you home with a 12 month warranty even.. And if you spent 40K to 60K on your car, and you just hand it over to the local guy, Thats a huge Mistake.. We also have a guy in South Jersey doing Coyote Swaps in Notckbacks and 88 GT's around here, But IDK.. For now I need the MGW shifter put in first.. In about 2 years i will be ready for the super charger.. Not going to be happy till I hear the SC scream...

Putting the air intake into the hot air farther back is bad.

Whats another $5-$7k to make 1000 whp lol. Guess if you do it may as well do it and get it done while its there.

How many thousands more to go to port inj. Like 900 isn’t enough for a daily. Just-so Mr ego can say it’s got a 1000. These people are rich like Marcos on Texas metal.

$900 for that shit?! Then it was supposed to be a cam/lifter swap and FIXED then they say come get it in pieces because it's a liability.....SUE THOSE MFERS!!!

You get lawyer sue and don’t pay them anything

Eric hates Camara boy

Pro tip get longer shirts, no 1 wants 2 c that lol

Did did over 20 passes on the dyno smh

Is Garrett related to Helen Keller?

This guy says "i dont understand port injection" like does this guy not do research?? Does he know or retain anything at all being in the shop?? SMH

After the first 5 minutes of hearing the misfortune of some unfortunate car owner being laughed at, I still didn’t hear the reason for switching one supercharger for another. I can’t watch this video and won’t be watching this channel…

It’s pike they always have to end up being rude to the video guy when bills wife videos they’re not rude to her they know they be down the road being nasty to the lady of the shop

Good video but if you are going to hate on the camera man go back to the original guy.

FIRST

I see in the beginning of this video a message was shared from someone. I would be careful when spreading misinformation about another company. Reading a message from a person who was not truthful about their dealings with a company is one thing. Then sharing the name of that company and talking bad about that company you know nothing about is very unprofessional. There is always two sides to the story and it would be wise to get more facts before speaking. I like how you all laughed about the engine on the skid and then called a 50 year old business ( Pro Car Associates, Inc. ) a chop shop. That so called chop shop, as you referred to them, happens to hold several world records, championships, set land speed records and was instrumental with many engine development projects with GM over the decades. I thought it was comical this person in the email claims it was brought into that shop only to evaluate a lifter tick. Yeah, a blown up lifter that wiped out the cam lobe, and lifter bore and sent metal through the engine. The engine was misfiring badly when they brought it in they admitted to driving it that way for awhile. It had even thrown a pushrod into the valve cover baffle inside. The person felt they had a warranty claim with whom they purchased the car and asked for the engine to be pulled and evaluated after they saw the cam lobe was gone and the lifter bore and valve cover damaged. I could go on and share many more details about this particular situation, but that is for another discussion. The moral to this comment is do not talk about things or mention names when you do not know the facts of the situation you are speaking about.

Erick why do you put him on the videos he so negative he hates his life or something
