Start by reading the sticky above in this forum. It compares all the turbo and supercharger kits available for our trucks. I have been wanting to call and see how much the procharger tuner kit is for 07-08 trucks. You would need to get injectors and a good tune also so add that in. If you plan on keeping the stock torque converter I wouldn't want a procharger, but thats just my opinion. With a higher rpm stall converter your engine will just rev up from idle to 3000 or so faster (instead of flashing up to 2000 rpm only), getting you in a better power band quicker.

The internal step-up ratios of the p1's and D1's is harder on belts, base intercooler is maxed as is (the 2 core)





Your set up is nice, but it is custom. The procharger so far is the only "direct fit" centrifugal kit. Too bad paxton won't package a full kit for our trucks.

setup is available for retail sale thru a non-supporting corvette shop. I have their blower kit on my boosted vette, a NA monster in my road race car, and a C6 kit bout to go onto a friend's 08 in a week and a half. I'll pm you their website.
