I got the base tune in. It runs but it keeps throwing a P00C7 code which is a pressure sensor correlation code, so I don't really have much faith in the tune.

The blower is putting out 10psi, but I only went WOT a few times with it. Going to have to get the dyno tune sooner than later.

Used a Magnacharger intake tube so I could run the stock airbox. Getting my tune on the 28th. I can't wait.

Were you able to use the info I gave you (on GM-Trucks.com) to buy it from Magnuson, or did you find it somewhere else? I'm thinking of buying a spare and would like to know where and for how much you got yours.

I actually put up a post on a Boosted Truck Facebook page and some guy sent it to me for cost of shipping ($20)

Thanks, bro

I should make it up there at least once this year.

Also, I changed my MAP sensor to a GM LT4 sensor at the advice of my tuner and the P00C7 code is gone. Turns out the SLP kit uses a Ford MAP sensor.

Going in for my dyno tune tomorrow.

When you get the chance, can you see what size pulley and what greenbelt you were given with this kit? I want to make a comparison to what Magnuson gave me. At first Magnuson gave me an 84mm pulley, but it made 4psi of boost when I was supposed to get 6psi. They then sent me a 78mm pulley, which did make 6psi. However, they didn't give me a new belt, and that's why I want to compare the sizes to your pulley and belt.

Hey buddy, the pulley is 83mm and the belt is K060878 which is 87.8''. It came with a regular belt and I ordered the HD green belt and put it on. same part number with HD at the end.

and the really bad thing about this SLP blower is there's no smaller pulleys available, but the 3 people I know running the kit are making 8.5-10 psi with that 83mm pulley.

Thank you! The belt they sent me was a regular old Gates Century Series Micro-V K060938 6PK2385 (94.5 inches). Wow, your belt is MUCH shorter! So what gives? Why did Magnuson use a 94.5" belt for an 84mm pulley? And now they have me using it on a 78mm pulley. I'm going to call Gates tomorrow to figure out what size belt I should buy (something I shouldn't have to do or pay for).

Do you know what boost level you're getting yet?
