I just hope i can stay happy with my new set up or i will join a 12 step support group ...lol

Nope haven't installed the Radix yet. Been working 7-12s, nights for 7 weeks now looking to get laidoff real soon I have been picking up parts for this project though like BBK 85 mm TB for real cheap, Tru-Cool tranny cooler 40K GVW, switches and digital gauge for inter-cooler temp. Also liked what Supersub did with his set up with a phenolic spacer between upper and lower manifolds. So I'm waiting for my bro-inlaw to finish cutting my phenolic spacer on his CNC. Thats what all I've been doing, will have plenty of pics as soon as I can get started on this project.

Here are the pics with the phenolic spacer on the Radix. Had to modify the fuel rails by moving the tabs upward on top of rails. Smoothed out the J-tube by doing a little porting and installed the 85mm from BBK. Looking good so far. Keep you guys posted with more as this project moves along.

I think for your DD & towing use of your truck you should go with the KILLER CHILLER, Link below, I installed it last winter and its been great now that the temps here in Texas are finally getting up in the 80"s I have found that it will keep the IAT well below ambiet, I will try and post a video soon and some Dyno #'s, the Radix Supercharger heat exchanger coolant stays at about 42*F all the time and the truck drives like its a winter day even on a 84* day in traffic.
I am waiting on a 95* - 100* day to take some data and post it on the Link below, Stay Tuned.

when using the killer chiller the A/C has to be on correct?
does this mean that you can't use the heater during the winter months?

oh ya and iv always liked the idea of the phenolic spacer, im glad some one else is using his idea

Yes the A/C system needs to be on and No, you can use the heater in the winter its just that the A/C system won't be on and it will be just back to the normal IAT's you would normally see with out the KillerChiller kit.

Finally finished the install. Had few things to modify but wasn't that big of a deal. Fired it up yesterday and it started up fine. This am though it had a rough time starting, called my tuning guy to set up a appointment to get it on the dyno to make sure things are good and a little tweeking here and there. Will post the numbers as soon as I get them. All in all I like the instant boost and mine was hitting 7.5 lbs of boost on my first WOT. Will see what the dyno says. Here are some pics of the finished insall.
