I think Kenne Bell makes a nice kit for under $4000. But, I think almost everyone agrees that the radix is the top-dog right now. I'm curious to see what the Whipple/Intercooler kit is going to be like in a few months.

if you get the Kenne Bell expect to be down installing it for about a week. they make you send them your ECM for them to program it then they send it back. Unleess you have a duplicate ECM your truck is parked for at least a week. thats on top of their crappy customer service. I was considering one before I got my RADIX , when I finally got through it was like they were doing me a really big favor answering my questions about the system, thats where I found out that You need to send them you ECM (shipping is also additional to the S/C kit cost. my .02
