Supercharger Kit Chevrolet Silverado/sierra 5.3 V8 on 2040-parts.com
Lancaster, California, US
My buddy is a well known fabricator here in Lancaster and he had a customer that wanted a water intercooled root supercharger kit fabricated for his 2010 Silverado so he used my 2011 GMC Sierra 5.3 as a mock as trade work for my other car, so he used a mustang blower and 42 LB Injector Dynamics ($138 per injector) and fabricated a water intercooled manifold for on top of the motor. I have included build pictures in the description for you to check out how it was fabricated. It boosts up to 10 PSI and gave it over 400 WHP. It is a complete bolt on kit with no modification of fuel lines or wire harness, its all plug and play. When we got it all together and tuned I had to have a kit so he sold me the mocked kit and now I am selling it with all of the parts for someone else to enjoy. The kit has about 3000 miles on it. It has an internal water intercooler, front mount water intercooler and water box with pump. It whines super loud and gets up and goes. I was very impressed with the performance. The throttle body was moved over about 3 inches and your stock air box can be modified to fit the kit. Im selling it because I sold my truck and bought a 2014 Silverado and its a completely different motor so I was kinda out of luck, but I am selling this one so he can build me another one for my 2014. There are some build pictures on this forum

No sign of global auto meltdown at Tokyo Auto Salon
Mon, 19 Jan 2009With more than 600 cars on display and a record number of exhibitors, nothing at the 2009 Tokyo Auto Salon tuner show hinted at the global economic downturn. As always, there was a great mix of styles, from hard-core, 1,000-hp, supertuned machinery to weird customized scooter tricycles. Auto manufacturers tried hard to capture the minds--if not the wallets--of the younger-than-30 crowd with customized versions of production cars, while tuners were busy persuading power junkies to choose them for their next engine modification.
