Default D1SC to F1? for my Silverado

For my truck in the signature which F1 series would you guys recommend as an upgrade to my D1SC?

I currently see 16# of boost at my 6000 RPM shift points. I'm not looking to run any more peak boost, I'd like to see the boost sooner in the lower rpms.

I'm thinking F1D.

An F-1D is what I would go with, but I can't say you'll see any more boost sooner in the rpm band if you stay at 16 max psi. You could add a wastegate which would allow you to bring in the boost much sooner. http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/eng...ger-wastegate/ Bob

Beat me to it, the wastegate setups are fascinating at how much earlier the power comes in.
