You might want to:

1) Do a search and go through the threads on superchargers and, in particular, Powerdyne.

2) Consider saving for another few months and get a Vortec, Paxton, ATI Procharger or other higher-end supercharger.

As I recall, Powerdyne is an 'entry level' device and prone to being somewhat annoying with performance issues. [I have a Kenne Bell on my 5.9 and am very pleased with the performance. (A twin-screw perfromance is different from a centrifugal: low-end as compaired to high RPM power)].

As with most adders, please remember the old addage: 'You get what you pay for'.
Think of it like buying oats. You can buy oats either before or after they go through the goose; the price is commensurate.

You're going to spend a lot on whatever blower you get, so saving for quality is in order. And, RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH!! Call/e-mail manufacturere, suppliers, blower installers. Planning will pay off in performance every time.

Have Fun and keep us informed,...

Doc
