They talk about a 120 HP gain. You can look at the dyno graph Slohawk just did with his Avalanche....I think that was right around 300 Rear wheel with a 5.3
I would think you would be a little better than that with the 6.0. But I am just talking....go ahead and do it and then post something up, then we will all have the info!!
I have the Trick kit on order just waiting for it to get hot coated but it is going on a 5.3 also.

Glad to see your interested in our products. Yea the IC will be must, in Arizona, meth will not be far behind. It really depends on your goals. IF keeping the bost down you could run just IC or just meth. That is what is so nice about turbos. You can install one in a weekend, and later when you want more power, turn up the boost.
Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.
* We are almost finished with our water/air intercooler set up. Roadtesting will be a mood point soon, we are starting to cool off here in TX. But we are hoping we can maintain just above ambient air, and when you want to race just add ICE for that really cold air temps.
. Time will tell.

I still haven't Dyno'd mine with the turbo, but I dropped my 1/4 mi ET's 3.8 seconds.
Stock at my altitude the Truck runs a 17.5 after the turbo I managed a 13.7

Awesome results! Be interesting to compare an STS vs. Trick on same drivetrain.
