The Powerdyne is a centrifigual (sp?) supercharger so it makes most of it's boost at high RPMs...which is fine if you regularly drive above 3000 rpm.
I think you would be happier with a Kenne Bell, or similar supercharger. Also, if your engine and tranny have a lot of miles then you would be better off just having it rebuilt.

i agree with nascarnut, a kenniebell would be better for a truck but I do know someone who has a powerdyne on his 96 and he likes it, not complaints yet. 100,000 is a little much to start putting a supercharer on. Atleast I would think twice about it. I have seen new cars with only five pounds of boost eat a cast piston plebty of times.
