GM LS Supercharger System
Designed for 2007-12 GM Trucks with 4.8L or 5.3L LS Engines, System Offers Increased Horsepower and Torque
Edelbrock has released the E-Force Supercharger system for
2007-12 GM trucks equipped with 4.8L or 5.3L LS engines. This system increased
horsepower and torque gains on both engine configurations for improved street
and towing performance.
In testing, a stock 5.7L was improved from 270 horsepower
and 308 ft-lbs. of torque at the rear wheels, to 364 horsepower and 397 ft-lbs.
of torque with the addition of the E-Force supercharger system. On a stock 4.8L
truck, the performance was increased from 228 horsepower and 259 ft-lbs. of
torque at the rear wheels, to 334 horsepower and 380 ft-lbs. of torque.
This new system utilizes the same Eaton Twin Vortices Series
(TVS) Gen VI rotors found in the stock ZR-1 Corvette as well as Edelbrock’s
highly successful Corvette and Camaro Superchargers. Unlike other
manufacturers, the supercharger assembly is integrated into
Edelbrock’s unique intake manifold for a truly seamless design with minimal
components. The intake features 12" long
runners for maximum low-end torque and an integrated bypass valve that helps
reduce parasitic loss under light throttle for improved gas mileage potential.
Keeping the air cool are dual, high
capacity, air to water intercoolers and a full-face, low temperature heat exchanger. It has been designed
to meet 50-State emissions and works with all OEM emissions equipment (E.O.
Number Pending).
A
Supplemental Fuel Pump kit will be required for all 2007-09 non-Flex Fuel
vehicles. Two kits are available and
they include a replacement fuel pump and fuel level sender.
