    Purchasing a new 2015 I am considering a factory build,supercharger, cold air intake, dual cat back exhaust, 6 inch Fabtech lift, electric side steps, 35 inch tires, considering regearing and possibly a roof rack.This will mostly be driven on the street and through snowing ski season. I have many questions and we'll search the threads before I get too specific.any recommendations are appreciated

    Other than terrible mpg, a hole in your wallet, problems with the stability control "VSC", lots of trimming metal, parts wearing faster, blowing gears, you'll have a awesome truck.

    Well supercharger. .mpg not big on the list.Sure I understand that but vsc isn't that only a problem if your spinning your tires in the snow. Yea parts wear faster but isn't that a 100000 miles down the road? We are certainly not going to abuse it daily and trimming metal...yea I don't like that..but if done right I'm told it's made stronger.Talk to me my friend

    Ive got 32's and can feel the power loss, Ive got 3 inches and cutting for 35's, 6 inches will create more drag being higher up and the DB hanging down. Your truck can push is but you will notice the power loss

    Well yes of course but don't you think the supercharger will help out? It's a build based on the arrival.

    The VSC is going to be your biggest issue. My truck has to go very slowly through winding roads otherwise ill get a front tire lock up that pushes me into the next lane. Really annoying.
    Trimming metal wont make it stronger but you're not going to make it any weaker, long as its done correctly. Certainly you will need to regear to a 4.55 if you're going to run 35's. That would actually be better money spend than the supercharger. Longevity of parts just depends really.

    gift to your son, very nice. But id do gears rather than sc, when would you really need the power from the sc?
