Supercharger?

[Denali34]

I say paint it Red then supercharge your 6.2. Best of both worlds

Well, to some it may not be worth the hassle.  But, I want the color I want.  Why 'settle' when you are spending in excess of $40k for a new truck?  And as far as getting a sports car, I have one:  a 2018 ZL1 Camaro with 6 speed manual.

 

I just like the idea of having my truck match my car, color wise, when I am towing it to a track day.  So, if I cannot get a Red Hot colored Silverado in LTZ or High Country trim, my next best bet is to get an RST with the biggest motor available, then supercharge it.

Paint the thing! Warranty in tact. LOL.

From that link. "The Callaway Silverado and Sierra are specialist versions based on General Motors’ GMT K2XX platform. The trucks may be equipped "

 

2019 isn't K2. So something is wrong.

I think they jumped before they looked when they posted this. They have not updated anything in 6 plus months.

Since I am disappointed that Chevy isn't offering the red hot color in the LTZ this year and the RST cannot be ordered with the 6.2L engine...

 

I am very close to ordering an RST in Red Hot with the 5.3L and the Max Tow package.

 

Does anyone know of a shop working on a supercharger kit for the 2019 5.3L yet?  Roush has a supercharger for the 2019 Ford V8 that takes it to 600hp.

 

I'd be happy with 500 out of a supercharged 5.3 if I can get it.

 

Anyone hear any rumors?

Dealership I bought my RST from has this new fire red RST with the Fireball performance package. Supercharged 500+ hp...Also had a Fireball camaro with 700+hp

Wait until 2020 and buy a Red Hot RST with the 6.2?

Interesting that it's an RST, I assume that means it's the DFM 5.3 not the AFM 5.3?

I feel like I always buy my trucks too early. Can't believe they announced 2020 RST's will get a 6.2 option. Screwed again.

[steveved]

That red supercharged RST is interesting, but it is RWD, not 4WD.

 

I read online that Chevrolet is going to start offering the 6.2L as an option for the RST trim level in the 2020 model year.  So, instead of trying to supercharge a 5.3L, I will just wait until August/September and then order a 2020 the way I want it.

Me too, my lease was ending I had do something. I'm gonna start saving for super charge, by the time I have enough they should be available...

I'm still waiting to see a stock tune from any 2019 model. I'm not sure how anyone is tuning these new trucks yet when even HP Tuners hasn't released any information about being able to get into the new computers yet. Even if the truck has the old AFM/6L80e setup, I haven't seen anything come up about them.

 

I even googled the Fireball package and couldn't find anything about the 2019 truck specifically, they had pictures of the K1xx series trucks.

Yah i wonder if that 2019 rst fireball silverado just has a intake and performance exhaust. No one has tuned these things yet so unless GM gave them special permission i dont know how they could have.

What dealer is that fireball silverado at, is it on their website with some pictures under the hood? Not calling you a liar but maybe the truck is being misrepresented by the dealer or i am completely wrong and will ear Crow.
