    I had one for about 1.5 year and it just sat in my garage while I tried to save for the URD 7th injector kit, iridium spark plugs, rebuilt kit, tranny cooler, shift kit, and fit (install) kit. But I fell on hard times and sold it before I could install it. :(
    Someday I'll have boost. Probably not on this truck. But maybe a 4x4 and preferably a manual, because you don't have to beef up the tranny for the supercharger. Just upgrade the clutch iirc

    Take 75 from columbus to alt 90 (turn left) then turn right just before a highway overpass (don't recall which hwy but it's the only overpass before 59) that goes to 59, go north to 6, bam sugarland with virtually no Houston driving
