I'm fortunate enough to live in the SF Bay Area so I had Synergy tune my Procharger system. One look at his Shop Truck and I knew twins are in my future (I have already given up on the "other" twins fantasy...). It's not cheap but when you consider ballbearing turbos are $1500 a piece, a kit of this caliber is priced appropriately.

thanks, Rick

Kerr, you could also call Livernois and find out if they are still selling their kit.

You can also keep your eye out in the For Sale section Sometimes there are complete kits in there...

Livernoise said " no we dont do the 8.1L "

I might just have build my own kits.

The sts stuff works well, We put one on a 98 Z28 then a cam, its 480whp now but eating the trans, then we did one on a 5.3 1500 gmc... he made like 360whp but he is old and doesent care what it makes... its real fat but he tows a boat...

From what sts told me the kit on the 8.1 only ads 120hp and 150 lbtq to crank numbers, so that would be about 445hp and 600lbtq... Good numbers for sure but i want to go in the 12's with a 7500 lbs suburban. i know i have issues...
