Hi to you all

got red of the jeep today and i am taking delevary of the Z71 by satarday


i know that this well start a big warr

but i am planning to get boosted once i recive my truck 5.3 Z71

i would like to know what is your piont of vew on each one of thim and y??
good or bad ???

user frendlly ??

comes with ECM upgrade and tuned ???

my car well be streetracing mostly and towing some times


thanks

 

If you are going to be doing some towing and a little street racing I would say definitely go with the radix. You can't beat the off idle torque and power of the radix plus it is a complete kit, just bolt it on and go.

 

i am sorry i well be street racing more than towing sorry for that


thanks

 

I have the Procharger D1, and it makes great power. I really should have a stall in it, would help tons of the line. But, I would probably say that the Livernois kit is the way to go. With a stall that thing would most likely be faster that the Radix or Procharger with equal amounts of boost. Noy to mention that a boost change is as easy as switching a boost controller or wastegate spring. Plus it just looks like a very easy to install kit and very complete. The headers and such are included, so no need for LT's.

 

lots of info on this, try search

 

New 05 truck?

 

no sir its a 1999 MY Z/71 5.3

 

I like the Radix alot but I LOVE turbos. The Livernoise kit would be my choice..

You'll have better top end pull and you can easily adjust how much boost you want through the boost controller. You have more power potential on the stock motor IMO.

 

Key to engine going BOOM Anytime you poor more boost on a stock motor, you better be ready for some tuning.

 

Making top HP is always a gamble. :p

They key to making any good and safe level HP is a good tune period. The Radix is the same way. The only thing that saves it from the get is that half of the time the PCMs are so detuned that it can't help but be safe. Bad part is power is also down.

If they guy lives in the middle of nowhere with no tuners available at any time then the Radix is a good choice. Otherwise I think he'd do better with the turbo kit and a custom tune.
