Default Superchargers & etc?

[IMG][/IMG]Hey guys I wanted to say hi first time posting here see if i could get some feedback on few things My truck is an 05 RCSB 5.3 3.73's Locking diff . so far I have done the 160 thermo, volant air intake w/ ram air tube, a flowmaster muscle truck cat back, tb bypass, tb spacer, mobil 1 and I had a HPP3 but sold it I going to get a nelson tune but was thinking about ordering a set of pacesetter headers & y pipe first what do you guys think? which would you do first? Has anyone put these pacesetters on and went to the dyno what kind of power are you getting if so? Also plan on puting supercharger on this fall/winter radix or kenne bell which one I have seen that KB has a new intercooled supercharger that was rated @ 500hp & 566lb-ft of torque @ the wheels on a stock 5.3! Anyone have a KB?What do you guys think? Is KB anygood?

Nice truck. I'd personally get the tune first. You can change set points withyour trans too, so I think you would see more of a difference. Then get it retuned after your LT's. Have fun. My name is Matt, and I am an addict.

What kind of tires are those they look sweet. Allen's tune is awesome I have one and am very happy. Get the tune then shift kit and servos so you can take all the torque management out of the trans that will help alot on shifts then pacesetters they are good for 20 rwhp. IMO I would get the kb because you can get more boost out of it but their customer service sucks bad. Radix is awesome with good customer service but you will not get over 10#s of boost from what I have seen so if you are looking for ver 500hp I would get the kb. The radiz will give massive off the line acceleration but if you put a stall in then get the kb they really shine higher in the rpm band. Sweet truck BTW. Welcome to the addiction it only gets worse after this.

Nice truck! looks real sharp! Damn the KB gives you 500@ the wheels on a stock 5.3!!!??? I hear a lot of talk about the Radix but not alot from the KB. BUt either one should be a good power adder! I need to do some homework on that KB kit!
