Big Heavy Truck = Radix
you could do worse I'd imagine.
As a side note: This is a plug and play ordeal. Seriously, I've never installed a supercharger before, first time, I've had Zero mechanical installation issues. That means alot to me.
Also the service life of the Eaton unit is at least 100,000miles, conforming to the 14K max rpm of course.
Last, this baby drives damn near stock not under boost, no weird quirks or surges, nothing, very smooth. And in boost, its a beast

Congrats!
I hope to be joining the family really quickly!
Drive it around for a bit iron out all the bugs and I will see what I can do about getting you in for a follow up dyno.
Sounds like fun...

That would be a treat
Brandin! You've got me all excited now.Let me know if you need any help with your install if Brian somehow manages NOT to make it, like he did for me
But then again, It did take me a little longer than most.
I'm ironing

OK folks, here is some prelim Gtech Data
Before Radix 0-60mph 8.1 seconds
After Radix 0-60mph 6.1 seconds
Before Radix 60ft 2.3 seconds
After Radix 60ft 2.3 seconds
My 0-60 dropped a full 2 seconds! very nice, however my 60ft times are exactly the same, I wonder why?, looks like I may need to get some Traction Device or Some Drag ET Tires, or both, to realize a quicker 60 foot. Before I do that, I'll Air down the tires a to 30lbs and see what happens, some hotter weather might help too.
Pretty obnoxious trying to do 60ft/0-60mph time/runs with this much rubber to the road. sheesh!
I know this is a faster truck than either above #'s show, I just have to harness it a bit more effectively.
On a side note, a new Toyota Solara was on the Highway and we were both going for the same lane, I drove around him like he was standing still, and the newer Solara's aren't that slow.
I need to go hook up my boost gauge and see whats up
