What would that do? And how would I go about doing that?

Not very knowledgeable on my end

It will do exactly what Cmerritt84 is expressing, placing a large grin on your face with a lot more low end power gained!

I believe RIPP had a thread here regarding a resent sale on their supercharger. Seemed to put down some serious numbers, however I'm not familiar or have not seen any other threads with members who have validated those numbers.

I know the peeople at RIPP personally. Good people. And they are getting alot of good press all over the internet and TV. looks like a nice system. There is no tuner that I know of for my 2011. So I may go that route as well.

I don't want to start a war, but damn man, your all over the map. First, what do you want(you said, more power??????)--how are you going to use your truck, what are your expectations, how much are you willing to spend, etc etc etc. What gears do you have now? Are you going to street race, are you going to the strip and race, are you willing to change your torque convertor and strengthen your trans to hold the additional hp and tq you are going to have----Lots to think about first before you start just buying stuff and throwing it together. Maybe think about the end result you are looking for and then there are plenty of knowlegeable people here that can help you with a "road map" to get you to your goal with parts that all compliment each other. I'm not trying to be an *** about this just trying to figure out what you really want and then figure out how you can do it in the most cost effective way.

I'm planning on using it as a daily driver and I'd love to maximize power output. Street racing is absolutely out of the question as its illegal and I'd be pissed at myself if it were impounded or my license was taken away.

I'll be making 8-11k over the next few months so I'll be SC it and adding many more upgrades as I work for my money and save. As for the gear ratio, not the slightest f-ing clue. Read the entire thread.( pay close attn to the first ? I posted and read that I'm not mechanically inclined)

I appreciate everyone's advice including yours.

What software is RIPP using to recalibrate the '11-C with their SC system, after install?

Thanks! I've looked into this first but to find a dealer and an installer? I've sent off an email to request pricing and additional questions I needed answering! Thank for the advice everyone!
