Upgrade to D1 at time of purchase?

I was thinking when I get the Procharger kit would it be wise to go ahead and upgrade to the D1 instead of using the P1SC? If it would save me money in the long run so I won't have to spend extra later. Would it be efficent running the different blower? I just want to know the pros and cons of doing that on stock internals...

Thanks

David

Re: Upgrade to D1 at time of purchase?

I'd stick to a P1SC on stock internals. It makes better torque down low and you aren't going to be able to go for more than 400 or so on the stock internals anyway. Plus the D1 is hella loud even compared to the P1.

I'd go with the D1 because chances are you'll want to upgrade later anyway and it's usually cheaper when you buy the kit new and upgrade.

I would upgrade. I wish I would have went ahead and upgraded mine to a t trim when i bought my kit. I would go with the novi as well.
