No problem, everybody to there own thing !

Rotrex. You will need to do some tuning, but I expect there to be similar times w/well tuned kits...check it out at W2W powertrains webpage.

Take a look at the VPS version of the RADIX kit. It is specially tuned for lower boost, but provides a GM/Gibbs developed trans tuning and all the parts to upgrade the tranny for reliability. If the truck is less than a year old and has less than 12,000 miles, the kit can be covered by a full 36,000 mile OEM grade warranty (one without all the "gotchas").

VPS is the successor company to Joe Gibbs Performance that is selling the JGP developed performance upgrades along with some new stuff to suplement it.

Order the kit with the intercooler if you plan to tow as indicated. Should give you what you want.

Do you have a link where I can find the info on this setup!? I will probably end up buying a new SS and if I do I would definately do this within 12k miles especially since it will be my tower/daily driver... I would like to have a warranty for once. The last 3 cars I bought were all new, and haven't had a warranty last longer than 6months. The GTO has a hard time getting things like the seat looked at due to my mods!

If you are looking to have daily driven reliability and be able to tow without worry, The MagnaCharger Radix is your only choice.
