Magnacharger question
Hey again,
Sorry for all of the questions guys, but I'm new to the blower game (as if you can't tell). My L99 currently has LT headers, high-flow cats, Borla S-type axle back, SCT tune from JRE and a K&N "Typhoon" CAI. I'm realizing now that the K&N might not have been the "best" choice, but here's the question. Rather than going back to my stock air box, like Magnuson recommends with the stock 3.8 pulley. Why couldn't I retrofit my current CAI set up to work? I can't imagine that it would be very difficult and it seems like it has to produce more air flow than the stock box. In fairness, the Maggie kit does come with a SLP "Blackwing" connecting tube. Thoughts. What am I missing? |

Not sure about the K&N, but I know you can make a CAI Inc work with the Maggie; it just needs a new tube. The shop I used recommended going with a RotoFab intake, but thought the CAI Inc was fine, too. I would not want to go back to a stock box. I believe that Jannetty tested the SLP tube only, and there were zero gains.

I know it is more money upfront but do it right the first time. I have a RotoFab myself. The CAI Inc are just as good. Go with one of them. You will not be sorry.
