I am looking to go FI in a Few weeks

I have a 05 6MT uprev. I and looking at the vortec sc but I like the greedy TT. I would like to do this local and for a full complete system. Install would be preferred but I understand It will need to be tuned. Please offer any deals suggestions or just your thoughts.,

I wake up this morning so upset over this whole deal. Feels like I just took a $3500 loss and have to eat it. Wondering if its really worth it?

how is it a loss? sell the procharger for what you paid and buy a used vortech for the same price. not that difficult.
