Fantastic article. Looking forward to getting my hands on one of these combo's this year.
It's going to be fun.

I don't think there will be an issue with heat. they are using the larger intercooler. with the super duty there is plenty of room for a large heat exchanger and even a killer chiller for down south. I remember the 454's and 8.1l engines getting supercharged and having no issues towing. I even know a welder that has a supercharged 8.1l in his welding rig. he still drives it and pulls his 5th wheel with that truck. I'm sure he is well over 20k lbs.
just to add, I plan to get an extended cab dually stx 4x4 with the 7.3 and supercharging it next year if work doesn't crash due to this damn virus. I plan to pull 20k or more lbs with it from time to time whether it be equipment or hay. honestly I don't see why I would be pushing it that hard very often. so long as the transmission still downshifts it's not like you will be pedal to the floor. ftl didn't seem to have a hard time holding 60mph up ike with 16k lbs in tow in stock trim.
just my thoughts. however I am always up to hear someone else's experiences.
did they offer any idea of when they will have final numbers or a kit available?
I want 1 on my 04
Blowers are cool but anything can make tons of power with forced induction. I want to see some NA stuff. Show me some trick flow heads and a super victor. Big bore or stroker stuff? Higher compression? Cmon
Might be a while. There's only 1 exhaust option (MBRP) out for the 7.3L right now. I'm waiting for Borla and Corsa to get in the action before I decide on an exhaust for my beast.
Any final numbers for the 7.3L Super Dutys?
Love the blower in red. Nasty.
