well its officialy time to supercharge my 18 sierra 5.3 A6. I've been slowly amassing the parts I need to do it and the last parts came in today. So I am going to start in the morning.
Modifications as follows:
LT4 Supercharger
LT4 Throttle body
LT4 Tmap sensor
2.8" pulley
LT4 injectors
LT4 HPFP
speed engineering Headers and y pipe
K&N blackhawk CAI
2 pc performance drive shaft
Glowshift Boost guage and pod
I have already installed a lot of the modifications all thats really left is the supercharger, all the brackets/adapters for it, heat exchanger and IC pump and hosing. Shouldnt be to bad of a install tomorrow. I purchased a custom tune for it that is for first start and get it running. More tuning will follow.
here is a pictures of all the parts I've amassed. I purchased alot of stuff through ADM performance and ICT billet.

Nice! It's gonna rip! Don't forget to upgrade low pressure fueling if over 9 or 10 lbs boost (guessing). Possibly an in tank pump such as the thread here on a Walbro 525 Hellcat or a DSX auxillary pump that uses map sensor instead of a Hobbs switch.

current pulley is for 6-7 psi according to ADM so I should be good to go on low side until I want more boost lol. I hope to leave to truck alone for a while after this but we all know how that goes.
didn't get to finish before dark but made lots of progress! I actually had to install the SC twice because there was a metal sleeve on the underside of supercharger that was hitting the adapters and not allowing the supercharger to sit flush. I had to grind it down a bit and then the SC finally sat down on the adapters evenly.
