Lingenfelter is offering up a new supercharger kit for the latest GM pickups, including both the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra. The new supercharger fits models equipped with either a 5.3L V8 or 6.2L V8 engine. The new Lingenfelter supercharger kit is featured in the following short video.
For those readers who may be unaware, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering is based out of Brighton, Michigan, and was founded by NHRA driver John Lingenfelter with the intention of adding some serious horsepower to a wide variety of GM vehicles.
To that end, the latest Lingenfelter supercharger for new GM pickups ups output levels considerably for both Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra models, stuffing the cylinders with an extra 6 psi of boost.
With the new supercharger equipped, GM pickups equipped with the 6.2L V8 L87 are rated 650 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque, a considerable increase over the factory rating of 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Meanwhile, vehicles equipped with the 5.3L V8 are rated at 545 horsepower and 535 pound-feet of torque with the new supercharger equipped, as compared to the factory rating of 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque.
To note, the 6.2L V8 gasoline engine in question is the L87, while Lingenfelter does not specify if the 5.3L V8 gasoline engine is the L82 or L84 gasoline engine, although presumably the new supercharger will work with both. As a reminder, General Motors dropped the L82 gasoline engine with the introduction of the 2022 model-year GM pickups.
The supercharger setup consists of Magnuson’s TVS 2650 GM DI Truck Supercharger, with an integrated air-to-air intercooler and Dynamic Flow Tuning Inlet Porting.
Put it all together, and the supercharger kit improves acceleration, towing, and off-road capability. Pricing for the new Lingenfelter Magnuson supercharger system starts at $9,199. The kit even comes with a 3-year / 36,000-mile warranty.

Are those figures engine dyno?
Uh… how are they offering this kit when these new trucks are supposedly “untunable”?
ECU swap. HP Tuners will do it right now for $600-700, I think, and opens up tuning for 2019+. By the time you pay for a tune you’re sitting around $1000
Lingenfelter tends to underrate their modifications historically. SAE NET HP will be higher than their numbers.
I seriously doubt the drivetrains in these trucks are engineered to handle that much torque. Good luck.
I think you’re confused with Ford and/or RAM a.k a. GARBAGE. Good luck.
Lol wait a minute are you claiming that gm is high quality or are you just trying to be a troll?
You don’t know what you’re talking about because the truck has a tougher rear end and transmission then the ZL1 which I also own and it handles the 650 hp just fine LOL If you just look up YouTube they have a video already of Calloway doing this to the Silverado 1500 and it beat that heavy ass Dodge by a full truck in the quarter.
No problem, GM has a wide safety margin in the stock drivetrain. Now when you have more power, if you do stupid stuff anything can be broken.
The music in the video makes the audio useless. I have a 2019 GMC Denali with the 6.2.
I thought LINGENFELTER PERFOMANCE WAS BASED IN DECATUR INDIANA??? IT’S ON WINCHESTER RD A FEW MILES FROM MY HOUSE.
Lucky you, that is a great place to go for modifications, they know what they are doing. I have not been there in a decade or so, but I was impressed last time I was there.

Here you go, the solution for those wanting the LT4 in the new ZR2 Silverado, but this SC is better and more efficient than the one on the LT4, so you get the power with more efficiency and a lower cost.
