i have had very good luck with my 502 and a procharger. the install was pretty easy, once i got it dialed in i have not had to touch it. the power and speed gains were great. i went from a 23 mirage to a 28 bravo 1 4 blade. my top rpm is about 5200, that is about where it was prior to the procharger. i have never had any problems with detonation. i have also seen good results with the whipple systems that friends have, i have just personaly had great results with the procharger. i think whichever you choose you will be very happy with. they are both well built units. the whipple gives you boost right off the bat, which in turn is harder on the drive. the procharger really comes on in the lower part of the mid-range and pulls hard through the top end. It is easy on you drive unit. good luck.
