Any one supercharge a 14 yet ?

I'm debating on either that or a turbo.. I have a really good dyno shop near by where I live and they've done it all. 67mm brog warner on a 5.3 1500 and it's a animal.

If they had, I'm sure you would have read about it in 10 different threads

We have tested both supercharger and turbo !

 

The Whipple 2.9L was the winner with 516 whp at 7-8 psi

and American racing cat-less LTH + Magna flow cat-back + AirAid filter

 

The turbo charged makes 473 whp at 7 psi and magna flow cat-back !

 

The fuel we use is 97OCT And it's very hot summer at this time temp go's up to 46c

I have one of the first 2014 6.2l Sierra Denali trucks with a supercharger. You can look at my posts.

edelbrock e force 2300 on my 6.2 we made 537 RWHP with 6 lbs of boost.

the E force has by far the best intercooler setup and makes more power with less boost than any of the other kits.

I'm debating doing this as well. I like whipple, maggie and Pro charger but I've got a twin scroll turbo on a 2.0 ltr Malibu pushing 21 PSI. Car Dyno'd at 308 hp with 315 FT pounds of torque(SAE smoothing 5) and very little lag. Lets just say it's a blast to drive and you gotta be conscious of the torque steer.

 

If I Can find the right set up, twin scroll, twin turbo, I will have to ask the wife for forgiveness.

    • Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/        
    • UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update  
    • GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.  
    • Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.
    • I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
