How To Increase Horsepower And Torque In A 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 4.3L V6
Question:
Will this give my 2008 Silverado 4.3 v6 more hp and more torque
asked by: Austin T
Expert Reply:
No, the Edge Insight CTS2 Comprehensive Gauge Display part # EP84130 will not boost the horsepower or torque that your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado has. The Edge Insight CTS2 is more of a supplemental gauge display. It will allow you to view data that is not normally accessible to the average person such as G-Force, EGT(Exhaust Gas Temperature), Boost PSI, and IAT (Intake Air Temperature).
In order to boost your vehicle's horsepower and torque ratings, you will want to use the Superchips Dashpaq Performance Tuner part # SU2060. This tuner will not only allow you to view certain features such as EGT, Boost, and shift points but will also allow you to adjust them which is where you will see added power from.
To further maximize the horsepower and torque capability of your vehicle, I recommend using the Superchips Dashpaq in addition to our Airaid CAI Cold Air Intake System with SynthaMax Dry Filter part # AR201-196. For an even greater increase in performance, you could also install the MagnaFlow Turndown Cat-Back Exhaust System part # MF17104. All three of these products will work well together and boost your vehicle's performance.
I have attached a video review of the Superchips tuner for you.
