Hey trick, have you done any testing with this kit on a stockish 5.3(which i see this kit is aimed at) say a baseline and an after? curious on what a stock/mild 5.3 with this kit and say 7 psi would gain??

 

Does this kit come with an fuel upgrades?

 

Not yet, been building so many kits lately not sure if I am coming or going. LOL Hope to have T1 up and running this weekend.

None, as with all of our kits we let the deside what fueling they need to add. Helps keep the cost down.

 

When do you plan to add an intercooler? Any proven dyno charts of this setup? Is it direct bolt on as in I wouldn't have to cut anything or order extra parts(besides injectors).

Ok, cool.... well i will be watching to see how this performs and may just try one out.

 

Damn! I think I'm gonna go out and buy another truck, just so I can try this kit!

 

Adding an intercooler we have a universal IC kit that can work with this set up. costing is 600.00 without kit, 500.00 if purchased with the kit. Thats the Stage 2. pics coming soon.

No dyno numbers. There are some many variables it really depends on the tuner and the trucks owener. 7psi is max I would run without an IC.

You will not have to cut any of the truck up, it bolts in. You will need electric fans, it will not clear a stock clutch fan. Not sure why someone would run one of those anymore but you never know.

The pictures shows all that comes with this kit, except the crossover clamp. I left that part out.

There is always stuff you need to buy with most kits. This is an entry level kit. If I start dynoing and playing with it (that's work) I will have to charge more. Our kits are proven to make lots of power, and be very reliable. This kit is built on the same idea just done as bare bones as possible. Hence the price tag.

We will have T1 running this weekend with this kit. I miss driving a boosted truck and the tires are getting old, need to get some use out of them.
I have no real plans to hit the dyno any time soon. I want to drive and enjoy.

If you are looking for what I would call "a more complete kit" I would recommend our stage 3, 4, or 5.

It really comes down to budget and hp goals for the truck.

I think your Stage 2 at $2500 is a good price! Ill keep my eye on it.

 

What about fitment for a 5.3 Colorado?

 

Moderators should create a sticky with each of your stage kits (1,2,3,etc) all listed in one place instead of having to search for your individual threads. Kits look great!
