Default GM Truck Turbo Kit Special Spring Pricing

Spring is almost here so we're running a discount on the Detroit Speedworks 4.8-6.0L Truck Turbo Kit.



Here is a video one of our customers supplied us after installing the kit on his Escalade EXT. The only modification is the turbo kit at 5 lbs. of boost. Everything else down to the exhaust is bone stock.

CLICK HERE

Look at the AWD Torque Steer!

This kit is complete and includes:
  • Polished Garrett Turbo
  • Black Powder Coated Inlet Tubes
  • Black Satin Ceramic Coating on Hot Parts
  • 42 lb Injectors
  • 3 Core Air-to-Air Intercooler

Dual 4 into 1 Tubular Headers w/ 1 5/8" primaries, 1/2" Laser Cut Header Flanges, 2 1/4" Cross Over, 3" Down Pipe, Powder Coated Inlet Tubes, All V-Band Connections, High Quality Silicone hoses w/ Aircraft Grade SS clamps, Tial 38mm Billet Wastegate, and complete detailed instructions.

* Bolt-on Installation; NO SHEETMETAL CUTTING OR WELDING required! Works with factory electronics.

The Battery, A/C, Power Steering, ABS, etc.. remain in the factory locations, so you could put your car back to stock, very easily at any time.

Pricing will be $4,995.00 for the kit. We recommend a shift kit which would add an additional $300 to the cost of the kit.

The turbo is a GT-37 with a custom exhaust housing, however upgrades are available.

We've seen decent gains with the kit on the Escalade at only 5 lbs. Stock it ran 16.8 @ 80 mph and with 24 inch wheels and a lot of heavy stereo equipment it ran 14.2 @ 94 mph.

Below you will find photos of the kit installed on a 2003 Cadillac Escalade

Default So which is better?

Which is better to put on a chevy silverado 4.8L? A turbo kit or a supercharger? Which would give you more power and more bang for your buck? Would you have more problems with either one?

We have a customer with an Escalade with an ATI Procharger and his truck runs similar times and mph at the track with 8 lbs. of boost as we do with 5 lbs. The turbo is more efficient (IMO) and makes more power at lower boost levels.

the problem with a turbo, and this is a good problem, is that it makes soo much power you absolutely KILL your driveline. if you plan on keeping it at 5psi you might be ok for awhile but who would keep a turbo at 5psi?

I think I could. I'm so lazy I doubt I'd be motivated enought to reach for the ****. I will need a kit to test this theory out on though.
