I plan on upgrading the brakes in September/October. I have been looking at Matts site Moe's performance, and I see a few sets I like, but right now I have to regroup after paying for this mod. I think brakes come next, then exhaust, then set it down a few inches. Mods never stop do they? Good thing I'm planning on keeping this for a long time.

Any plans of upgrading the trans? Great looking build.

Did they take the wheel / tires off to make it lower to work on?

I am quite envious of this. Should be amazing fun!

They sure did. I thought why in the world are my rims off the truck and then I was like boy what a great idea.

I had them put in the Edge 2600 that I got from Moe's performance. Matt set me up with the stall for the motor with the blower. From what I understand Matt from Moes said that the Stage 3 valve body is not available right now, but you can take yours out and send it to them. I figured fight now just take it a little easy on it for now and get funds together for when its needed. I know Arrington has them available so when it goes I will just replace it then.

I'm sure you would have no problem doing that. I had to plan a vacation for my wife, the only problem is she wants me to go with her. Can you believe that.:signs16::signs16::signs16:

I cant wait to see what you think when you pick it up. That Magnusson is going to make instant power, and when you combine that with the new converter...BYE BYE back tires...haha.

That's what's great about different blowers....you can pick the power you want.
A PD blower for serious down low grunt for drag racing or towing or whatever or a centrifugal for less down low power but higher rpm performance for people like me that want to play at higher speeds.
I love it.

Great job, if you ever do get that valve body and think to remember it, I'd love to hear how that went. PM if you get a chance, much appreciated. Great work, and sweet truck. I have a red cab bright blue as well, but right now I'm liking yours a whole lot better.

Waited all day yesterday for the call from the shop. I finally had to call them for the bad news about the car in front of me. They were having trouble with the 2012 Challenger running too lean with the tune from Pro-charger so it took longer. My truck is supposed to be on there now, so I am heading down to the shop to take some photos and maybe a dyno run video. Thanks for all the positive vibes from everybody. I keep you all posted.

Just picked up my truck from the install. Still can't wipe the smile off my face. The worst part about any mod is the dyno. There is no lying with that. I was expecting to get about 450 HP at the rear wheels, but I didn't get there. Looks like with 6 lbs. of boost Iall I got was 417 HP. 410 Ft TQ. It's a little disappointing, but its such a great ride. I didn't want to set it up as a race truck since I am using it as a daily driver.th_IMG_2246_zps5e0d0200.jpgClick on photo for video

417hp is nothing to be upset about. That is screaming for a street truck. I bet it is a monster off the line.

That's awesome, it's a little over 100 HP's more that what I've seen people report from stock motor dyno pulls.
