Vortech V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger Tuner Kit Air-to-Water Charge Cooler Satin (20142018 Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra 5.3L / 6.2L) 4GQ218-110L
Satin V-3 Si-Trim Tuner Supercharger Kit for 20142018 GM 5.3L & 6.2L Trucks
The Vortech V-3 Si-Trim Supercharger Tuner Kit (PN 4GQ218-110L) is engineered to deliver efficient, reliable centrifugal supercharging for 20142018 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra half-ton trucks equipped with the 5.3L or 6.2L GM V8 engines. Designed for custom-tuned and higher-performance applications, this tuner kit pairs Vortechs proven V-3 Si-Trim supercharger with a high-efficiency Air-to-Water Charge Cooler system.
Developed through continued testing in Vortechs supercharger lab, the V-3 Si-Trim features an improved internal architecture with a patented oil control system and a state-of-the-art compressor stage. With industry-leading 78% adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723), this system generates less heat, reduces parasitic drive loss, and produces more usable power while enhancing long-term durability. Vortech supercharger systems also weigh less than half of many competing low-tech designs.
Performance & Efficiency
Utilizing the durable V-3 Si-Trim compressor and an integrated Air-to-Water Charge Cooler, this tuner kit can increase power output on stock GM truck engines by approximately 4050% over stock when properly tuned using California 91-octane fuel. Manifold boost pressure is supplied at approximately 6.0 PSI at redline on a stock engine.
Why Centrifugal Supercharging?
Centrifugal superchargers are inherently more efficient than roots-style blowers, producing higher airflow and pressure with significantly less heat. Dollar for dollar, Vortech systems deliver outstanding horsepower gains, and when driven normally, fuel economy often remains unchanged or may even improve.
