ProCharger P-1X Self-Contained Centrifugal Supercharger Head Unit - 950 HP - 1,275 CFM - 32 PSI Max Boost - Satin Finish - PC053A-xxx
The ProCharger P-1X Self-Contained Centrifugal Supercharger Head Unit represents the next evolution of the legendary P-series platform by incorporating ProCharger's advanced X Compressor Technology. Designed for enthusiasts who demand greater airflow, increased horsepower potential, and exceptional street manners, the P-1X supports up to 950 supercharged horsepower while delivering an impressive 1,275 CFM of airflow.
Designed for naturally aspirated engine combinations producing approximately 300-500 horsepower, the P-1X offers an outstanding balance of everyday drivability and serious performance. Capable of producing up to 32 PSI of boost, it is equally at home on high-performance street cars, street/strip builds, autocross vehicles, drag cars, marine engines, and custom applications where efficient airflow and reliable power delivery are priorities.
Powered by X Compressor Technology
The defining feature of the P-1X is ProCharger's X Compressor Technology. Developed to improve compressor efficiency and airflow, this advanced compressor design allows the P-1X to support greater horsepower while maintaining the compact packaging and proven reliability that have made the P-series one of the most respected centrifugal supercharger families in the industry.
Rather than simply increasing boost pressure, the P-1X is engineered to move air more efficiently across the operating range. The result is outstanding top-end performance while maintaining the smooth, progressive boost curve that makes centrifugal superchargers exceptionally street friendly.
Engineered for Performance and Reliability
Every P-1X is built around a rugged 6061 billet aluminum gear case and utilizes a precision CNC-machined 7075 billet aluminum impeller, precision-ground shafts, premium high-speed bearings, and ProCharger's proven self-contained lubrication system. Because the supercharger carries its own dedicated oil supply, installation is simplified by eliminating engine oil feed and return lines while making routine maintenance quick and convenient.
The P-1X combines its advanced compressor technology with a compact 9-inch volute and proven 4.10:1 internal step-up ratio, delivering dependable performance for enthusiasts who want room to grow without moving into ProCharger's larger race-only head units.
This listing is for the satin-finish ProCharger P-1X head unit. Mounting brackets, pulleys, belts, crank drive components, intercoolers, charge tubing, bypass valves, fuel system upgrades, tuning, and installation hardware are not included unless otherwise specified.
