best way to FI my engine?

[White Devil]

Supercharger.. what kind?
or turbo it??
Im thinking about doing FI on my truck but I dont know wich way to go..
Thanks

[ducky]

a turbo would love 4WD...

Tur BO Yes turbos love 4wds. R U mostly off roading or street. Off road I'd go with a TVS 1900 or 2300. Street = front mount trik turbo.

since you just ordered long tube headers and off road pipe, I would go with a supercharger TVS 1900.

Size. Go with the big one. No such thing as too small.

Yeah, a TVS system would work well. There have been good results from a 1900 on 5.3L motors. Not sure if the 2300 is too much blower for the 5.3L... Since the new TVS system has come out--the Radix systems have gone down in price. The Radix is still a good unit which makes good power (+~150rwhp), but you WILL need to invest in a meth kit to keep the IATs down...

Mic, your Tahoe ran 108 mph compared to this truck ,lol. that tahoe is in the 12's for sure with a good launch.

but you WILL need to invest in a meth kit to keep the IATs down...

Iat's are more than under control with the tvs system. The iats actually get cooler the more you get on it.
No need for a meth kit right away under 8psi. Iat's won't get higher than 120deg or so up to 100+mph.

I say TVS!

Yes Allen, agreed that you will not need a Meth kit with a TVS. I was talking about if the did get a 112 unit, he would need the meth kit. I can't tell you how many people who have run a 112, 112HH, 122 Radix units that have unusually high IATs. But they have done a great job on the unit design of the new TVS systems to keep the internal temps down by making it super efficient. I say go TVS too--but if you have to fall back on a Radix system--its still a great unit...its a win-win situation for ya!
