Honestly. Procharger f***ed up on my kit forsure lol what I thought would be about a week install turning into 3-4 weeks now

You exchange your original pcm. Ship it to HP tuners and they send you back an unlocked one. They send you everything you need to do this. Make sure you have a windows os. I used parralels on my MacBook so I can boot the windows os anytime no need to restart the computer or buy a separate laptop. cost is the same as on the hp tuners website for the exchange service on chevy pcms it’s included into the price for the procharger kit.

Found the issue. New spacers being sent from procharger. That about sums up how this installation has been lol

Another question... what’s the clearance on the main bracket and the alternator pulley? When I fully tighten the main bracket bolts the pulley and bracket are touching... I removed the top long spacer and bolt and it seemed to open up the gap between the two but only about a 16th of an inch... I measured the spacer and it appears the top one is a 16th of an inch off of the what the numbers are in the directions. Just curious if the main bracket and alternator pulley are really supposed to be that close or if there if more of a gap you think?

I couldn’t get a hold Of either. But I talked to an auto body shop they said to heat the bolt up for about ten minutes then try cracking it. Basically I just took a propane torch to the center of the bolt and held it for 10 minutes. The bolt cracked easy after that. I let the bolt cool down before fully unscrewing it after. Looked as though there was some locktight on the bolt head and a little heat managed to loosen that up a bit.

Currently in the process of installing the procharger. Any tricks or ideas on how to get the crank bolt off? I’ve tried 650lb impact driver but only 8 gallon compressor? I’m thinking that might be to small? Tried the breaker bar with a pipe extension also. That bolt is actually welded on there ...

What exactly did you have to do with the mdI2? I just ordered a procharger myself. Was hoping the hp tune would be all I needed for the truck to work fine. I have no experience in using a mdI2 but very willing to learn. Also If day you added a cat back or cai to your truck can you change parameters with the hp tuner they sent with the kit? Thanks man. Truck looks unreal btw
