2011 Escalade Whipple 2.3/Lysholm 2300/TVS2300 ???

At equal boost levels the twin screw should make more power, but more power with less boost and the only swap was the blower doesnt make sense unless the blower was out of its efficiency range and/or different tuner, different dyno, different day.

I never had a problem with a 24 ft enclosed.....im thinking you're going with an open trailer if its just an escalade shouldnt need much for an open period....would hold 90 on flats 75-80 in hills with the truck stock with a 20 ft steel tiltdeck

I have a Lysholm 2300 kit for L92 thats been sitting in my shop since December. I have been wanting to install in my wifes Escalade.
I will post results as soon, if I ever install it, if I dont sell it first.

I have the whipple 2.3l kit and I am completly satisfied with it. I am cutrrently using the pulley that came with it creating just about 6lbs of boost. I got a custom tune and I love it. I have a 2008 sierra denali and it is a beast.

We put a TVS 1900 on our 07 Denali XL last summer, and once the tune got straightened out, I was really happy with the power. I estimate 0-60 in low 5's, and we had no problem pulling our 27 foot 6500 lb travel trailer to the lake and back. This running no more than 5lbs of boost.
I asked for the 2300 originally but the dealer talked me into the 1900, likely because the kit for the 2300 for the Denali did not exist.
I am a big fan of magnacharger, having used one for 60,000 miles on our recently sold 2003 denali xl (and it is still going strong - according to its new owner, who I keep in touch with).
I had a whipple on a 96 sub with the 454, and the belts kept coming off until I could find someone who could align it right. I am sure the technology has improved, but I have now tried magnacharger, whipple, and procharger (too laggy without a higher stall converter), and prefer the magnacharger the best of all 3.
Good luck whatever you choose.
Edit - my dealer swore by the Dynatech long tube headers in combo with the 1900, so something to consider if you go that route.

Before you pull the trigger, I would look at the SLP kit for trucks. Not only is it a bolt on 2300 kit for trucks, but the rotor housing looks wicked and it's still built by Magnacharger.
