getting ready to prepare to SC the truck...

thats right. tys 4x4 is about to be boosted!!!

just want to know which kit is best to get. i believe there are a few out there.

and where is the best place to find an m90 for it

checked ebay. and only came up with one blower that has been ported and rebuilt. for 600 bucks. no thanks.

i would rather buy a beat one and rebuild it myself.

and is the install pretty straight forward? what all else will i need to do? im sure i'll need a new tune as well.

just wanna get all my ducks in a row, research research research and then execute!

thanks!

this whole kit would be nice, but wow. its a bit expensive. but comes with a good supercharger.

seems like it covers all bases.

thats the biggest thing to look at.. tune, fuel pump and maybe some injectors haha

^^EE is more than double the cost of the RP caster kit plus SC plus tuner....





RP Caster. $1600 kit, get more power out of it, plus a bigger SC as well. AND it's cheaper. Did I mention that?


As far as getting the huffer, ebay, junkyards, craigslist, etc. I'm kicking myself for not getting the one at my local yard that was a low mile unit for $100.

I'd do the kit if I wern't scared as balls to push that skinny pedal for the risk of blowing up the trans. I have memories of Jared tearing his trans to shreds with his EE in double lifted form.

yeah thats what im thinking. if i can get the one that seed posted, ill be sitting pretty at around 1800 bucks for the kit and supercharger. then just need to get it tuned. injectors if i need to.

EE will pass smog and the RP kit wont. At least in CA it wont. If you have a guy that will look past it when the time comes then go with the RP kit.

what kind of HP gains can you expect with a SCd 4.0?

Like 50-60 hp. I think the EE kit runs 5psi and I know that with the stock pulley on the M90 you will get 4.5psi I wouldn't go over maybe 5psi on a stock engine.
