Look forward to seeing the instal. It'll make a little less boost on a 6L than a 5.3. I wanted to buy one but i dont have $2700. I might have bought one for 1800 but too late.

Not surprised by magnacharger not wanting to sell parts for it tho. A lot of companies are like that. When i bought my whipple i had a hard time trying to get parts from them after i told them i bought mine used. There are ways around it tho just have to be creative.

I have to disagree, Nitrous is the best bang for your buck.

I don't care if the SOB is welded on, You can still get it off there. when you guys are ready to yank that pulley off and stick a new one on there let me know.

I was one of the lucky ones that got it for $1800, I probably would not of paid $2700 for it also. I'm planning on doing my install next weekend, so I'll keep everyone posted on how it goes.

Man, some of you guys need to think outside the box. This is the perfect foundation for hp if you are willing to work a little. Not everybody wants a bolt on truck...

KB makes a puller and pulleys that look like they might work. If some pressed it on I'm sure it will come off.
I"d rather run on the safer more conservative side than on the ragged edge of self destruction. Sure I'll probable take my truck to track but by no means am I trying to but a max effort boosted engine. This is my DD work truck, the main reason I'm doing this is for more pull power to tow my camper.
BTW, another supercharger company that I will not name in public sold me the TB adapter I wanted. It was very inexpensive so If it doesn't work out I'll have one made.
