I'm pretty sure that you don't have to change the oil in a magnacharger, but I think prochargers may be a different story. IMO there are just more components that could go wrong with a turbo setup compared to the self contained supercharger. I'm always going over the nuts & bolts in my turbo kit to make sure they haven't backed off as well as the IC tubing clamps, lines to wg & bov, and I especially worry about the oil lines leaking.

Maggies could use a refresh at 100k & ProChargers need regular changes on the headunit.

"bracing" is me... KB Racing, lol. He misspelled it. I build turbo kits for these trucks as well as anything custom you want or can bring to me.
