What do you want to do with your truck, that will better answer which one is the best rather then a bunch of peoples opinions.
Like I said before, I'm really not looking for anything outrageous. Just a little more "get up" when i step on it. Maybe get into the 12's!

I was running 13.2@ 2000'da with my full bolt on 6.0. But either one will get you into the 12s. Turbos are great and sound awesome. But so are superchargers. That's why I went halfway and got the procharger.

I had a Magnacharger, and am in the middle of switching to a turbo. I really liked the instant torque of the supercharger, but I only had a 112, and my HP goals well exceeded that. You really need to determine what your max HP goals are, and go from there. The supercharger is nice for instant torque, but you give up a few HP by turning the unit. What will you be doing with the truck, and how much HP are you looking for?

It's also 100% true...

I started with a simple intake, exhaust and tune with my 6.2


Then got the Procharger. Fell in love with boost. Blew the motor up, upgraded pretty much everything inside it and now want to go even farther.


Boost/HP is addicting. The feeling you get when you are in a CC work truck and a Vette pulls up along side you and you know you can smoke him always brings a smile to my face.

He said get in the 12's and DD. TVS or whipple is simple and easy. It doesn't give you as much of an option to screw your self over for being boost happy.
