    Sick ss n vid bro. I’m from Manitoba n I’m driving to BC this weekend to pickup an ss. It’s got high clicks and needs a new floor pan, but I’m planning to build it so I’m going to boost and after reading a bunch of forums n watching vids it seems a supercharger route is more reliable and less thing to go wrong, also easy bolt on.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 2 lety

      I agree. My SS is the perfect daily driver and has been nothing but reliable. Drivability is just like stock but just has more power at all rpm. Makes it easy to drive on icy Canadian roads and can still run a 13.6 in the 1/4 mile on the weekends.
      Install is way easier than a turbo as well. I have done both and definitely prefer my supercharger for a daily. A turbo will have better top end performance if you want an all out race truck

    Hey there.
    Love the truck.
    The description says its a TVS blower but the one in the video is a Gen V.
    Easiest way to tell is that the rotor pack/case/snout for a TVS is 6 bolts and the Gen V has 8 (except on the gt500 which has 7)
    This one looks like it's probably a 122ci or 112ci.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před rokem

      When I did the swap from my 2002 Escalade to my 2005 SS silverado everything was basically identical because they both run the same LQ9 6L engine. Supercharger dropped right in, only a few minor accessories I had to change.
      As fas as tuning goes the supercharger did come with a generic superchip flash that works but it was not that great.
      I have a full EFI live custom tune and it is worth every penny to maximize the performance of the blower. They change everything like fueling, ignition timing, rev limiter, governor, torque management, trans line pressure and more.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 3 lety +2

      I’ve drove the truck lots before the supercharged and a decent amount on the new set up too. It’s literally the perfect daily driver truck with the blower.
      If you tow a lot I would recommend a bigger trans cooler. The small factory trans cooler sits behind the supercharger intercooler and when towing at 110-120kms/hr it’s in boost the whole time with roughly 2psi on flat highways. ( my car and trailer set up is roughly 6500lbs ) So I imagine the intercooler would be pretty hot and not leaving much cool airflow for the trans cooler. My trans temp will be at 100c casually cruising with the TCC locked on the highway with 10c ambient air temp. Start and stop traffic would probably over heat the trans in a short amount of time. ( I think dexron 6 ATF is only good up to 120c or so )
      The truck tows the load no problem. Fuel mileage is horrible though. When towing my trailer I only get roughly 250kms a tank

      Not much to it. The supercharger it’s self just replaces the stock intake manifold.
      Only hard part is how heavy it is! Almost a two man job lifting it into place.
      Then just mount the intercooler in your grill, some generic hose running to a separate reservoir and coolant pump.
      Then just add an inline fuel pump by your fuel filter. My Cadillac had a 255 walbro. My SS does not have a fuel filter connection so I put a new bigger pump in tank.

    Did you make your own plate to mount it or did you buy one?? Super interested in where you got the plate to mount a charger. Been wanting to supercharge my Tahoe but I can’t fathom $4k for an LSA charger and everything needed to just mount and get it running.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 3 lety +1

      I bought a 2002 Escalade with the same LQ9 engine that already had the magnason kit installed so everything was already there and I just swapped it to my SS.
      The blower it’s self is more or less a one piece when mated with the intercooler brick and it just sits directly in place of the stock intake manifold. The only additional bracket you have to add is for the extra idler pulleys and stronger tensioner on the front of the engine.
      I couldn’t justify buying a new supercharger kit either. They are very expensive!

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 2 lety

      It tows awesome, tons of power but it’s crazy hard on fuel. You will be getting roughly 300kms to a tank hauling 6500lbs. Factory 410 gears in the SS do help.
      Trans gets a little on the warm side with the factory trans cooler now being behind the intercooler. If I towed lots I would get a bigger trans cooler for sure.
      Towing 6500lbs I was making 1-2psi boost on flat ground doing 110kms/hr on the highway so I’m sure the small intercooler does heat soak the small trans cooler pretty quick.
      Overall though it does very well! Almost similar to a stock classic body duramax diesel power wise when loaded.

      All modern superchargers these days have intercoolers. If not your intake air temps are crazy high and your not actually benefiting that much from the added boost pressure.
      A few little things have to be changed and modified but nothing that is overly difficult.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 2 lety

      Buying it new would be closer to $10,000 Canadian. It was a legitimate budget build though. I swapped it off of the Cadillac Escalade and then resold the Escalade for nearly the same price I bought it for. A lot of work but no I never spent much money on it.

    • @JT2JZ
      @JT2JZ  Před 2 lety +1

      It may have ran but there were a few differences on the engine still. Cadillac had egr my SS does not from factory. SS has electric fans. I don’t think the Cadillac had electric fans but I can’t remember for sure.
      You may run into security / theft / immobilizer issues with just swapping ecms as well. Would likely have to reprogram the stock ecu to the new truck still.
      Those generic tuners are not that great either. I got way more out of the truck with a pro efi live tune. Definitely worth the money if you are going to that much work already.
