Thanks for the comments and the pictures. It looks like my CAI intake will work fine with the TVS2300. It also looks like the Maggie might add about 120 rwhp? My car currently is making at 362 rwhp (L99 with intake, headers, exhaust, and tune).

That's about right. Maybe 10-25 more hp, depending on the tune and octane.

And which headers are being used. LT's are worth approx 20-25 more than shorties... My numbers are on shorties, no muffs, CAI and 91 octane

Don't waste your $$ on the warranty. As been said before, what they pay won't cover your losses and in your case, you've voided it already with your LT's.

I think if your looking to get close to the 500 number, make sure to use the 3.6 pulley. I also did a L99/LS3 conversion plus a GT-11 cam with the 3.6 and pulled 553rwhp running 6.5psi.

That is subjective As an example, when installing a turbo, you dont spend extra money on pulley changes, you dont need to drill into or install the crank pulley, you do not need to modify the heater hoses and plumbing, you dont need to plumb hose to and from the heat exchanger (installing the heat exchanger for the Maggie is the same time it takes to install the Intercooler for a turbo. Quote:
[QUOTE=hypurone;1942580] a lot more plumbing for the required air-to-air IC.QUOTE] I agree there is more tubing with the turbo than with a Maggie system but no more than a Paxton, Vortech or Procharger set up and in exchange the discharge temps are way lower on the turbo then the Maggie. Air to air intercooling has a lower discharge temp then a Maggie at boost and cruise Quote:

Again I agree the Maggie is nice and as easy to install as any other system. But if you talk about stress on the engine the turbos create les stress because they dont drive and create crank shaft load. The number speak for themselves if your goal is 600 rear wheel (100 more than a ZR1) then you can get there for less money with w twin turbo set up and have less stress on the motor because it will take less boost |

[QUOTE=Granatelli;1946240]Let me start by saying I am a huge fan of Magnuson and we work hand and hand on projects. With that said please allow me to address a few of your statements:
That is subjective As an example, when installing a turbo, you dont spend extra money on pulley changes, you dont need to drill into or install the crank pulley, you do not need to modify the heater hoses and plumbing, you dont need to plumb hose to and from the heat exchanger (installing the heat exchanger for the Maggie is the same time it takes to install the Intercooler for a turbo.the size of which can be challenging to route without modifying the car in some way Nope. No piping or drilling of oil pan. Oil drains back into the valve cover. And most turbos these days do not require water cooling. Where are you obtaining the oil to lubricate the turbo(s) then? You have to tap in somewhere...and tap in again to route to the valve cover(s) Quote:

Oil comes from sending unit - just a simple T goes in line and oil goes back into the valve cover through the oil fill cap - no drill or tap
No mods to install intercooler either |

I'm leaning toward the KB after reading this and other threads, nothing against Maggie it seems the safe way to go.
Question for you guys i also have the CAI intake installed will it work with KB? If not i have no problem selling it and going with the KB mammoth, the only thing i am wondering is the filter looks pretty low, will it not take on water when driving in rain. |

Where to buy the supercharger.
Where are the best places/retailers to order a maggie, kenny belly, procharger, or vortec from ? Are the kits any different depending on who you order it from?
