ProCharger P-1SC Self-Contained Centrifugal Supercharger Head Unit - 825 HP - 1,200 CFM - 32 PSI Max Boost - Satin Finish - PC050A-xxx
The ProCharger P-1SC Self-Contained Centrifugal Supercharger Head Unit has earned its reputation as one of the most trusted and widely used centrifugal superchargers in the performance industry. Designed for enthusiasts who demand exceptional horsepower, outstanding reliability, and true street drivability, the P-1SC has become the benchmark by which other self-contained superchargers are measured. Whether you're building a modern muscle car, classic hot rod, truck, or custom performance vehicle, the P-1SC delivers the airflow and efficiency needed to produce serious power without compromising everyday drivability.
Supporting up to 825 supercharged horsepower while flowing an impressive 1,200 CFM, the P-1SC combines proven compressor efficiency with a compact, self-contained design that eliminates the need to tap into your engine's oiling system. The result is a cleaner installation, easier maintenance, and the legendary reliability that has helped make the P-1SC one of ProCharger's most successful head units.
Why Enthusiasts Choose the P-1SC
Horsepower is only part of the story. The reason thousands of enthusiasts continue to choose the P-1SC is because of how it delivers that power. Its efficient centrifugal compressor produces a smooth, linear boost curve that increases with engine RPM, creating exceptional traction, predictable throttle response, and excellent street manners. Unlike positive displacement superchargers that generate instant peak boost, the P-1SC builds power progressively, making it an outstanding choice for both spirited street driving and competitive motorsports.
The P-1SC is equally comfortable on weekend cruisers, street/strip combinations, autocross builds, road race cars, and drag racing applications. Its versatility has made it one of the most popular choices for enthusiasts who want a supercharger capable of growing alongside future engine upgrades.
Engineered for Long-Term Reliability
Every P-1SC is built around a rugged 6061 billet aluminum gear case and features a precision CNC-machined 7075 billet aluminum impeller, precision-ground shafts, premium high-speed bearings, and ProCharger's proprietary self-contained synthetic lubrication system. Because the supercharger carries its own dedicated oil supply, installation is simpler than traditional engine-oiled superchargers while routine maintenance is quick and straightforward.
The efficient radial compressor design is capable of producing up to 32 PSI of boost, allowing the P-1SC to support everything from mild street combinations to aggressive high-performance builds with excellent efficiency throughout the RPM range.
