I think you would be better off with a whipple.

ITS easy to get 600rwhp with the stock blower why spend all that extra money ? If all your going to get is 570rwhp,thats just a couple of bolt on's and your done,plus your not completely changing what the car is.
plus KENNY Bell has terrible customer service I mean really bad. If you have a issues good luck calling them and getting them to answer. go ask any shop,if they are telling the truth they will tell you it sometimes takes days to get through.I have dealt with it myself before,as well as the shop I was dealing with told me the same thing and i didn't listen. I loved the look ,but paid the price when my car sat for months waiting on bell to take care of the issues

I got 552rwhp with just a 8.6" lower pulley. Without a tune.

Very nice!

IMO there's no need to spend all that money for a new blower just for 570rwhp..

Unless you want more than 750whp and are prepared to replace the entire bottom end with reinforced and forged components I would not replace the supercharger.

Stay away from Kenne bell. I dealt with them in the 90's and they are terrible at customer service and support, always have been. I drove by their shop awhile back and it's still there. Good luck you'll need it if you don't listen to the advice given by myself and other members here on the forum.

thanks for your answers

i have a kenne bell lolLuckily there was another Camaro5 member that traded my car in at dealer and I picked up the fine tuned bad boy. I keep seeing that they have bad customer service, thats a shame because they look real good.But yeah If I were to install a S/C on a fresh new car I would prefer the magnuson.

my .02 is depending based on that hp goal it is not worth it. 600whp manual and 575whp or so auto is just too easy to hit witht he stock equipment.

I mean upper, lower, CAI, ported snout, TB, injectors, would get you past that.

half the money, a bit less labor, keep you strut tower. now you iat2's might be better with the KB so depending on your goals how long you want to sustain higher boost level you might want to consider it.

you could always do Zr1 cam and headers as opposed to both pullies and hit those targest at say 11-12psi with the stock blower as well though.

I just can't justfy the 6k.

thats $2500-3k depending on where you buy the parts. if you add headers the cost will just up to 3000-3500.

now forge the bottom end and I tottally see the the desire to put a larger blower on.
