| "Pick Up 2 Seconds! MM&FF flogs ATI's Intercooled ProCharger under real-world conditions. Is this the ultimate in modern supercharging? The ATI ProCharger worked wonderfully the entire three days we lived with it. Considering that the Cobra* gained more than 16 mph in the quarter under 97 degree conditions, we wonder what type of improvements the car would have made at sea level. Look out because it appears that ATI is going to try to blow the supercharger market away." [*stock '93 5.0, 2 core intercooler, 9psi, pump gas]

"So what goodies were in the box? It included the P-1SC-1 self-contained blower, ProFlo bypass valve and a three-core intercooler. The car [3V] was dyno-tuned to the tune of 492 rwhp and 400 lb-ft of torque on 91 octane."

| "ATI's new line of self-contained superchargers looked inviting to us, and why not? The P-1SC specs read like a veritable performance recipe for any new blower... Throw in a three-year warranty, a self-contained oiling system, and an emissions legal, gear-driven design and you have a winner on your hands. The P-1SC's 70-80 percent horsepower increase is exactly what our 3g GT project needed to help achieve our 1g of acceleration. Being emissions legal and easy to install were definite pluses in ATI's favor as well. The final selling point was integral intercooling."

| "This is the fastest street car I have ever driven. It just plants you to the seat... With the same 14 psi of boost as the modified factory supercharger [Eaton roots model], the... Procharger blower had increased 118 hp... at the rear tires! The boost level was then set at 19 psi... and this put the final numbers at an insane 646.9 rwhp. Maximum torque reading at the tires was 541.7 lb-ft [an improvement of 184 rwhp and 47.8 lb/ft at the tires, simply by switching the supercharger]." Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords

| "They introduced a 17 psi kit that put stock Mustangs in the 11's, and received CARB approval for their intercooled 14 psi system. Not one to rest on its laurels, ProCharger now offers their new P-1SC and D-1SC self-contained superchargers... Self contained means that there are no oil lines to the pan and generally installation is cleaner. In addition, ProCharger offers the advantage of intercooling to provide even greater horsepower gains. By keeping the air cooler, more timing and/or boost can be used without the worry of detonation."

"We did something as simple as bolt on a blower [P-1SC] and then proceeded to drop a full two seconds off the ET daily driving and back-to-back runs. from a near-stock 1996 GT ...and did it on pump gas... with nothing more than a 5-speed, 3.73s and drag radial tires."

| "...the car made an astounding 466 rwhp [70% hp gain]. It took us roughly seven hours to install all these parts [ProCharger HO Intercooled system with DiabloSport Predator, and Corsa mufflers], tune the car [otherwise stock 2007 Mustang GT], and take it to 466 rwhp on the Dynojet"
|
| “Proceeded
to drop a full two seconds off the ET... and did it on
pump gas and radial tires... we did something
as simple as bolt on a blower [P-1SC] and then proceeded
to drop a full two seconds off the ET from a near-stock
1996 GT with nothing more than a 5-speed, 3.73‘s and drag

| "And
now, thanks to the latest from Accessible Technologies,
you can build a supercharged and intercooled [1998] 4.6 Cobra,
add almost 200 horsepower, and vaporize every F-body in
your path... “[During testing], the Cobra was
an instant terror, pegging the dyno meter at almost 450
rear-wheel horsepower and 377 lbs.-ft of torque."
|
| “With
the intercooler, the air temperature is only raised 20-25
degrees above ambient... Because the air is now
cooler and denser, boost levels can be increased without
detonation. In fact, the intercooling effect works so
well that a timing retard is not necessary with the street-legal
intercooled ProCharger kits [for most applications]...
Unlike other systems that mount on the passenger side
[of 5.0‘s] and require the relocation of the alternator,
the ProCharger kit rests far on the driver side, leaving
all the accessories where Ford intended them... Another
nice thing about the ProCharger kit is, since it is such
a powerful supercharger already, you need to only buy
one unit, and you don‘t have to worry about upgrading
to a bigger supercharger later.”

“On
the first run off the street (and make no mistake, Vaccaro
drove in all the way from Queens), it clipped a 10.77

10.32 at 129.02. Vaccaro was so fired up, he called it
a day. He changed tires and went home, confident no one
would beat his time. And he was right."

| “For
enthusiasts, the advantages of a self-contained system
are many. Aside from the fact that no drain-back
hole in the pan is necessary, a self-contained system
takes less time to install. It also has less potential
for error (such as chips in the oil pan or a botched tapping
job), and there is no danger of engine oil contamination”
|
| “Imagine
a V6 Mustang with nothing but a supercharger making more
power than a ’01 Mustang GT with a robust V8...
Well, if you compare the apples to apples of the two automatic
equipped cars, you’ll see the ProCharger V6 [stock 3.8L
with 9 psi, 66% increase in power] cranked out 34.8 more
peak horse-power than our ’01 GT... The fitment is nearly
identical [94-98 vs. 99+]... and both are relatively easy
installs due to the self-contained nature of the P-1SC.”
|
| "Under
its monstrous hood, the engine plumbing of the C-500 twists
and flexes like the arm of a professional body builder.
Almost as if it were bragging about the power it produces.
But it's OK to talk the talk if you produce power
comparable to that of the ProCharger HO blower.
Especially one that pushes 10 psi through a 3 core intercooler."
|
| “So
what makes this new blower so much better than the models
that created a tidal wave of ProCharger racers last year?
Well, it starts where most things do at ATI —
with a stronger transmission for improved durability.”
|
| “ATI
is the company that first brought intercooled supercharging
to the Mustang Market... so, when ATI called
us offering a look at the company’s latest blower technology,
we jumped at the chance. What‘s even more exciting for
the modular crowd is the SC‘s internal step-up ratio will
allow owners of built modulars to step the boost all the
way up to 20 psi on a six rib belt.”
