    Not right now. I am actually offering it free to whoever buys the turbo kit. Because it's custom V-band welded to mate up to the downpipes.

    Motor, drive train and full standalone engine management. The Truck will still retain the body control module for the ICE.
    HA this will be far from PnP

    Nice!!! LS was on the list, but I just put one in another build so wanted something different for the Taco. Plus, I feel "LS SWAP" just doesn't have the WOW factor anymore since it's so common.(nothing against the motor..it's proven and a great power plant!).

    Hmmm...I wonder. Dodge demon with twin turbo or a super charge would give you over 1000 hp I bet. Is that what you're looking at? Or were you talking naturally aspirated over 1k?

    That would be awesome! The LS9 is just super expensive in crate form(for the power you get ~700hp:anonymous:)


    Hellephant perhaps?

    I mean, if anyone could get their hands on one it'd be you! They seem to be hard to get a hold of, but if so that will be wicked sick!

    Yeah i've been looking to try and find a used charger from a ls9 but they seem to want just as much as the kit from magnusen anyways... i can easily get 600+ out of a lsa charger so probably gonna go that route for me.

    I’ve been thinking about that. Right now I’m going through the stock engine bay harness/wires and removing anything that isn’t necessary(basically everything that plugged into the stock engine/trans) it’s a lot of wires. Then I’ll lay out the haltech elite engine harness, and hopefully use the factory firewall pass through hole. The Haltech came with a rubber grommet.. I’m just on the fence about chopping it and soldering on a mil-spec connector.

    Mil-spec connector would be so much better, should look into autosport connectors too.

    Going to take a wild guess, is it a 4.0 Built Barra engine?
