Who’s running a Circle D on their DD? Is a a forced induction truck? Any negative driveability issues?

I have a Circle D in my supercharged truck. I believe its a 2300 stall speed its just big enough to get rid of the cam surge in stop and go traffic.

Was it a noticeable improvement? Any negatives to it? I’ve had a few shops say yes do it. Others say no for DD, but couldn’t tell me a F150 customer with complaints

No idea on improvement. It went in along with a built 5.8,stage 3 cnc ported heads, custom cams and ported blower. Did it get rid of the cam surge yes. I still tow a car trailer about 5,200 lbs with no issue.
