Superchargers for Trailblazer, Envoy, Bravada

[Robert2427]

I have emailed Vortech Superchargers with no response on when a supercharger will be available.  Anyone else heard about other companies working on superchargers for this new breed of SUV?

A supercharger for these things would be nice.  I'm sure there are a couple of obstacles with these things.   Off the top of my head:

 

1) Current compression ratio

2) The factory injectors appear to be sized just perfect for 6000rpm non modified motor.   Will need a LOT larger injector for SC.

3) Someone will have to come out with a hand held programmer for the 2002's like they use for other Vortech and ATI kits (Superchips programmer).   This may take some time.

4) Crank may not be keyed.  I'd have to look into this, but I bet the balancer is press fitted like the LS1/LS6 engines.

 

I'm sure there are other things I missed, but I was thinking about taking my ATI P-1SC off my LS1 and custom fabing a kit for the Envoy.   However, since the I6's don't use a MAF, I can't tune for larger injectors without programming.

5) Forgot about the Hyperutectic pistons.   Can we say glass. ;)

 

Someone send me a spare I6 Engine with forged slugs and I'll give a kit a shot.
