Currently my plan is to install a maggie S/C then later down the road upgrade to LT's and 3" exhaust.

How difficult is it to reprogram after S/C install

The canned tune won't handle any mods beyond the SC itself. You will need to have it dyno tuned or obtain a custom tune from Jannetty Racing or similar (you will need to datalog for it) after the upgrades.

Exactly... for the start you will be in good shape using the tune that comes with teh supercharger...

When you go to headers or upgrade the intake etc... You will need to hit up a dyno tune.. That will make more power and will be worth every penny!!

When you put the headers on, you will want to change the pulley to keep your boost up. I went with the 3.6" pulley with my car (which has LT headers). The standard maggie kit comes with the 3.8" pulley.

I'd suggest you think about doing headers first then add the maggie after so you don't have to swap pulleys.

Whats the usual HP increase between the canned tune and a dyno tune with a S/C?? Maggie, Vortech..any really.

I think this is good info. Headers and exhaust first. Also, for example, in DFW area if you come to ADM Perf and purchase headers and exhaust from ADM with a tune then you are in the ADM brotherhood. So, any future mods like cam, or heads, or blower, or whatever combinations then you are not charged again for the tune to go with the new tweeks. It is like the auto makers marketing the BRAND Loyalty discount on a new car. Just good business for the tuner and customer to establish a repotoire. (spelling)
