Default what are the options for fi for a NNBS rcsb silvy

Like the title says, what are my options for forced induction on my 08 NNBS RCSB silverado, with the 4.8l motor. I would like to go turbo, but am un aware of any kits for the NNBS trucks. I would be open to supercharging, but I would not like to go with nitrous as I would want it all of the time.

Thanks in advance
John Bottone

there's the obvious maggie/radix that are very popular on trucks

think there's a procharger kit out which I'm not the most fond of having messed with one on my tahoe years ago and on a friend's 03 avalanche.

I have a paxton kit on my truck and my dyno is in my sig. of course I'm working with a 6.0 vs. your 4.8 so your results might not be as high.

I'd say either a Trick Turbo or a Magnacharger with a TVS1900.

where do you want your power to be on your truck? a magnacharger makes power under the curve (off idle power) and from what ive read most turbos are making power mid to high RPMs.

a TVS1900 wouldn't be to big for a 4.8L?
