truckin just put one on there blue bomber 4.8l. $10,000 to keep up with a stock 6.2l but they only payed $17,000 for the truck so they still made out. I dont think you can get a 6.2l under $35,000

I watched it , pretty cool , but they need to do before and after dyno testing for results , that would make for a better show .

Nice truck they installed in BTW.

And they never said how much boost was made or installed a boost gauge .

They didn't dyno it cause those huge wheels and tires woulda made **** power and w the blower at prolly 5 or 6 psi it woulda made just above stock numbers. Nice install looks like the blower comes with everything it needs. They shoulda def dyno'd it and with lingenfelter tune it should be spot on

37 in tires with 3:42 gears has to suck. Lol

They said it only puts about 90?hp extra to the wheels. Isnt that lower when compared to a whipple or lysom or even a radix? Wonder what size it is

Pretty sure it's a 1900. Eforce uses the same rotors the Radix uses, just there own housing and intercooler.

The vette and camaro versions are all 2300's. Haven't heard of a 1900 option on those. I'm betting it's a 2300. Their reason for being is that fact that they fit under a vette hood with no mods. Not much reason to use one on a truck unless you like the looks. They made compromises in intercooler effeciency and air flow by squashing it to fit under a C6 vette hood.
