Supercharged for the l99

What would be the best supercharged for my L99? I hear many supercharged loose a lot of HP is they are automatic.

The auto's don't loose hp. More HP is absorbed by the drivetrain resulting in less rwhp. The new Magnuson blower may be right up your alley. Give Jannetty Racing a call on the 2nd. He is the guy you want to talk to and he's only 40 minutes away from you.:thumbup:

No problem. The magnuson is an awesome kit. I've had mine for about 3.5 years now and not one issue. I think you'd be happy.

The Magnuson is awesome, Ted just got the new SLP too didn't he?

I have an L99 and just got the SLP TVS 2300 with a cog setup. I'm making 515rwhp and 540lbs. 12lbs of boost. only other Mod is a CAI

Other option is to do turbos. You can make 600-700rwhp with no other mods. No cai, no headers, nothing else but some turbos.

I hear that with turbos it can be a bit complicate system to have since it require a lot of maintain, is it true?

The only turbo kit I would even consider would be the IPS. All the others have less than stellar track records.

You just can't beat the reliability and trouble free life the Maggie offers.
