im not a fan of the procharger kit because of the air intake location and intercooler placement, modifying them will make it a better kit, almost everyone on the forum have switched from a procharger/magnacharger to a turbo, so thats the way to go

depends on your goal, i don't think that 4L60 will hold up too might as well do a 4L80 swap first

trick stage 3 kit sounds like it would be perfect for your setup... that's the direction I'm going
