who's running a procharger on 5.4 2V?

Is there anyone out there running a Procharger on a 5.4, 2V. Are you doing any towing? How's the low end power and torque? I've heard good things about this unit, like to hear from you on it. Thanks.

I've got this setup. I love it.

I did re-gear to 4.10s on street tires. I don't think I would have been as happy with my setup if I retained my factory 3.31s. These centrifugal blowers run better with a few revs to keep the boost up. If you tow and have the tow package, you may already have a 3.55 or, better, a 3.73 rear-end. (I have no idea why my tow-package truck came with 3.31 gears)

But my torque peaks at a reasonable 2700rpm, so it's not a slug at any rate.

Towing a 7000-lb boat thru the desert is fantastic. I have no complaints, except that I wish I had done it a lot sooner.

5.4 w/Procharger.

Hey, thanks for the info. I put in the 4.10 gears about a year ago. Used to be 3.55's. It really made a difference in my towing capability. I'm pulling about 9000 lbs. boat & trailer, thru the desert so I really need to be sure that a Pro-charger will perform before I buy one. From everything that I've heard so far, it sounds like it will. Thanks again.
