if you want the best performance and drivability then i would put a radix supercharger on there and call it a day. that way you could use your stock converter and whatever gears you have now and it would still be fast as hell. the mp112 goes for ~3000 here in the classifieds

SKIP the MAF sensor-there are absolutely NO GAINS to be had with aftermarket sensors unless your stock one is dead or a restriction (which it is not).

SKIP the throttle body (I assume you mean 90mm?) unless you have everything else bolted on.

DO headers.
DO cam.

If you are planning to supercharge later than you should consider that when choosing a cam. What is good for an NA app may not be best for FI.

Happy reading!

A regular cab 2x4 with a Radix would be bad *** with stock cam and just a Corsa catback.

Once you recover you could cam and header. It's all about the money eh?

Then it's a hassle to pull the radix again to cam up. I say the best route would be Radix and Cam with a better muffler, then recover and header later.

I would not fear getting a used Radix from a reliable source here. Just get experienced help to install. Mo-Money!

Oh hell, I was thinking something else. Don't know why I thought you were a SB 2x4.

Thanks on my truck. I must confess it's mild compared to others around here but lots of fun. Check out trever1t's rig.

I live in a small city and may be the only kind of thing like mine around here (for now). I keep it stock looking so I can pick and choose my own fights. Heh!

First thing I would do is to ditch the Jet PCM tune and get a good tune from one of our sponsors such as BlackBear, Wheatley, or Nelson. A good tune can make a world of difference. Next do the bolt ons, such as exhaust, long tube headers, etc, and get the PCM re-tuned accordingly. After that I'd be building up the transmission to handle the mods to come such as cam, heads, etc. Swapping in a 6.0 is always a nice upgrade, and getting a higher stalled torque converter and rear gears that compliment the cam will bring it all together. You mentioned going FI, so building the trans to handle the extra ponies is a must. You can base your cam choice, as well as the torque converter, around the blower also, or get a good N/A combo and change the parts later when you do the SC.
