Thats a good choice Dan:thumb: My 4094 is good but definitely has considerably more lag than the 75mm over stocker I had. If I ever get my spare engine built I might look into that charger.

Yeah, it seems like it would be the right choice for what I do. I'll probably shoot for 600ish HP on stock fuel, so it should do the job nicely.
Hopefully the truck will be going under the knife in December or so. Right now I'm getting my DD/beater 08 GMC ready for winter.

Well, I finally got my truck over to the new place. I forgot how much I like driving this thing, I also forgot how bad the brakes really are :D
So I gave the truck a wash and some fresh fuel (Still has summer fuel in it) and parked it in the garage. I was a bit concerned over the garage size, but it should work alright. I have about 4' from the front bumper to the wall, and enough room to drop the tailgate in the back. No new pics since it looks exactly the same as it did a year ago.
So the big plans are the brakes right now then maybe start playing with the tuning a bit. I'm also trying to decide between the 3794 BMW and the Stg2R from Danville now.

Well I picked up the SSBC short stop kit. I already have new wheel speed sensors and Russell braided stainless lines. All that's left to pick up is a GM coated hard line kit now and brake fluid. Then she should have brakes again. :)

I'm going with the stage 2 4094... I already have a stock one and Mark is willing to up-grade it, so why not:thumb:

Let me know what you think of the SSBC stuff. I wouldn't mind up-grading the brakes a bit on my truck as well.

Yeah, I will let you know. They came with Hawk pads, and I've used them with success before. That's all I have for now. :)
I'm leaning towards the Stg2R 68mm right now, until Mark comes out with something better, which he is likely testing already :D

Wonder if he has tried the new vanes and witchcraft with the 72mm wheel:thumb:

Bump :)

I showed a different truck some love today. My 2008 GMC CC/SB 6.0L is gone and I picked this up. I couldn't say no with what they were asking for it.

It's a new 2014 GMC RC/SB 4x4. It has the 5.3L, 6 spd, 3.42's and a G80. It is that iridium color. I couldn't resist and had to de-badge it.

So far I have a set of Fuel Mavericks w/ Duratracs, box cover, bed mat and Weathertech floor mats on their way for it.

In the future I'm going with a Denali grill, cold air intake and an exhaust because this thing is way too quiet. Maybe a leveling kit and some Fox shocks too.
