Sorry but I do not think it will work, 07s have active fuel management to shut down to 4 cylinders to save gas. You would probably need a engine tuner who can turn off the AFM, since throwing more air into the engine when its in 4 cylinder mode would probably cause plenty of timing problems when it switches back to 8 cylinders. Just my opinion... good luck!

I'm not that familiar with the gmt900 platform yet, but I've been around the GM W-body platform for quite a while. My regal has an Eaton supercharger on it and lots of guys have had a lot of success with it, but for the gold in supercharging the title goes to Whipple hands down. If you aren't looking to tow anything, you may want to check out your turbo options. The L67 3800 community has gone into the 8's in the 1/4 mile with turbos. It doesn't help your low end torque but the HP can't be matched. Check out www.zzperformance.com . I believe the owner used to have an 05 or 06 Turbo'd Yukon Denali. He may be able to offer some suggestions. :cool2:

You will need a tune to get rid of the afm but it is the same platform as the older body style trucks in terms of the kits. Any centrifugal supercharger (paxton, procharger, vortech) will spool up like a turbo and not provide off idle boost. They also require a better tune but a procharger will make great power. The roots style supercharger (whipple, eaton, kenne bell) will make awesome off-idle boost and can be tuned via mail order by someone like justin @ blackbearperformance or any other mail order tuner. You will need to buy a transgo shift kit and a bigger cooler if not a mild rebuild on your stock trans (4L60e's don't like any more than +70hp). I'd vote for a magnacharger kit with a tune from justin and some dynatech longtubes mated to a magnaflow catback. 450whp and your trans will be fine until you buy a smaller pulley for the blower :thumbsup:
