The only info that I have right now is posted above and on our website. I'll send you an e-mail with pricing. We already have a few orders in and are getting them lined up with Magnacharger. They are working on getting the first kits out just after the 1st of the year.

We are actually installing one of these kits as we speak on a 2003 5.3 regular cab short bed. Should be running by tomorrow. The kit is very nice and very complete with all components supplied. They are using an even larger compressor on the new Radix system versus the original side mount non-intercooled system. I believe its 112 ci vs. 90 ci on the side mount system. If anyone wants some pics, let me know and I can snap some with the digital and send them to you.

that looks like a sweet set up but i think it would run out of breath prety fast on a modified engine. i am not sure if we can compare the CI directly like this but the whipple is 2.3L or 138CI and this new unit is only 112CI, asuming it has the same max recomended rpm as the whipple i think it would be prety much maxed out on a stock 6.0 with good exhaust.

i am not saying that it wouldn't be fast especialy with the intercooler but it looks to me like 6-8psi on a stock 6.0 would be it's limit. i am making alot of asumtions here, seems like an eaton isn't exactly the same style as a whipple, maybe it can be spun faster.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO MAKE A AN INTERCOOLED TURBO SET UP FOR US TRUCK GUYS! i would yank that whipple in a heart beat if i had that option. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

We will be dyno testing the system next week. I will let everyone know how it does. We have a baseline on the stock 5.3 truck, so we will have a net gain from the Magnacharger, our ASM headers and a 3" exhaust.

The truck has 4.10 gears, ASM Longtubes, stock cats, and a single 3" catback exhaust. We will have dyno numbers as well as some 1/4 mile times very soon. I will post them.
