Larger lower is always an option if you want more boost

This kit also came with the raised crossover pipe. I just need to find a set of the new square tube fuel rails, the old round plastic ones wont work.

one should consider what you get when you pay the good money for the maggie kits. overall value is much more than just bottom line price.
I didn't intend for this thread to become a maggie vs this kit bash. There's no denying that that the maggie is a great kit.
This kit was intended for nnbs 5.3 trucks and includes everything for that install except a tune and possible fuel supply upgrades. I knew that going in.
Yes, the pulley is pressed on. Oh well. I'm not trying to make a high boost truck, just looking for a little added performance and towing power.

Pressed on pulley or not, there are ways to make it smaller!
The only thing I am thinking about right now is how to run a 90mm tb with out spending $400 on an aftermarket one. (i have dbc) I may just have to use an adapter for now... ^PM me a price when you get a chance^
One more thing I like is the blank "name plate" on the charger- a nice place to do some custom mill work.
Thanks for clearing up the tmap sensor deal. Now I know the tan wire is tapped into for the intake air temp which is built into the maf sensor on stock apps.

List of stuff needed to install on a 2003-06 truck:
NNbs 07-09 gen IV: fuel rails(square metal ones)and water pump (found one new on ebay for$75.00).
Injector adapters: ev6/uscar to mini delphi style.
TB adapter (I'm gonna call magnacharger for a price on theirs).
Plus the stated: 90423637 tmap sensor and 88988320 harness which according to gmparts direct is available.
Tune.
Fuel system upgrade. I found a deal on a new Magna volt.
I don't think its too bad.

here is what my good source said about these.

It's legit, the dealer wasn't suppose to release it as a Roush Kit though. So, with that being said we unfortunately won't have replacement parts or calibration for it. We probably had 90 kits or so...
Good luck with the install, I bet it will be fine. Dont go hunting for #'s but for a average guy this will be a nice set-up

im not bashing the kit. just pointing out some of the things contributing to the significant price difference.
