should be simple if it comes with the brackets other wise it should more or less bolt on. But you will need a SCT tuner I think for that to work properly.

lol I wish I could just go ahead and do that. makes me wonder sometimes how much money I'd have if I didn't do one single thing to my truck. Perhaps a new engine's worth...

Damnit...time to start buying lottery tickets.

bolts on if it comes with everything you need right out of the box, if its used... dont get your hopes up.. on just installing it when it comes in.. most people keep the little things you need to make it work properly..

also, invest in a SCT and a spare PCM, only way your going to get that truck moving is with a good tune.. n2o, turbo/sc all require very good tunes for them to work correctly...

you can just throw it on and run 8-9psi... but you will start to have problems or notice huge lag spikes in the powerband..

get SCT and have Hemifever tune it for you, you can datalog the info and send it to him via email, speaking of dataloging you will also need some type of wideband data logger, LM-2 wideband handheld is your best bet, it logs more things then any other logger.

Good luck...

i wish i could go drop 1-3k on the truck on a dime, but i had to drop 3k on a lawyer "on a dime" so there went my p&p on the heads, cam install, and my blower down the drain..

grrr.. i hate police...

o and btw threadjack, the police didnt have video of the arrest, my lawyer is getting a copy of the police report, and from what the prosecuter told him, i already know the cop is lieing about everything he said "i got into the car" which i never did and i have 2 witnesses, where as all he has is his word and no video.. muahaha..

this bitch is going down.

i put a Procharger on my Formula and wasn’t that hard. The worst of the install was dealing with Prochargers instructions....there was revisions that were never added, you had to call ATI for help. Don’t hesitate to call ATI they were always very helpful during my install.

BIG bummer...if you have any intake or exhaust work you might not see the clamed 8-9 psi, my car only hit 6 psi because my car has full exhaust and fully ported intake. I’m hoping to put a smaller pulley on soon.

took me about 2 weeks, but i wasn’t in no hurry only worked on it hour or so a day.....good luck man.
