The wife is going kill me….

Definitely going to need some pictures of the TBSS, especially the engine bay with that blower and belt system.

A buddy of mine from the GTO group traded his TBSS in on an ‘06 GTO, only to trade his ‘06 GTO in again for another TBSS. They are really awesome, but I just couldn’t get over the fact that my mom had two lol. Plus, while granted I never drove a TBSS, you had to get hers to about 4000 RPMs before it would start to move any. I didn’t want to do that in a daily driver.

I know what you mean. I had an '02 GMC Envoy with the 6 cylinder. Only saving grace was the rear end had 4.10 gears. Stock was 3.42. Here's a few pics I dug up.

Where’s the blower? I figured it was a roots type. Is it centrifugal?

And the wife wasn’t as pissed as I thought she’d be. Although technically I didn’t pay for it, my dad did (since I’m the executor of his estate and used his account, which is now my account, to buy it all). That and she hasn’t seen the 6’ long “BORLA” box in the bed of the truck yet.

It's a roots style, jackshaft drive, supercharger. Here's a better pic of the blower itself..

Looks good. I liked how the CAI uses the bottom half of the air box. I had the most fun trying to figure out how to get the electrical connectors apart.
You might want to start rehearsing your answer to the question "why is the truck louder, is there a hole in the muffler?"

Yeah, I was planning on it. Well I’m sure it’ll be me and a few buddies, but yeah.

@LamboTexas sent me this clip. Of course videos like these always make them look way easier than they truly are, but even still, it doesn’t look too bad. The thing that has me most concerned, or rather confused, is the box from Borla in this clip is only like 3’ or maybe 4’ long. The box in the bed of my truck is the length of the bed of my truck….
