$600.00 Also (i think, will look into this more if needed) the 1900 does not require fuel injectors to be swapped out, the 2300 does.
I have a customer with a GXP G8 who seems to be thinking the same way as the OP. He also does not want to put any undue stress on the engine.

I've been thinking of the same thing. I want to boost my car, but how much? This is my daily driver and I don't compete with my car. I'll do a few test and tune nights in the year and that's it.

I also don't want to dig into my engine, not yet or at least not for 10 years.

I'm basicly looking from something that is going to give me a nice amount of boost with the least amount of added stress to the car. I'd like to stay around the 475 to 500 RWHP range.

We wll have a complete test with our stock ls3 and the 1900,i have been very impressed with how snappy the 1900 is on the heavy camaro. We have some customers at 660 rwhp with a 1900 in a gto so there capable of great numbers.If i was keeping a stock bottom end and wanted to be safe i would lean towards the 1900.We are finishing up one more test with our bolt in 9 inch and then we will start a thread with the 1900 and how it responds to mods.

I may be wrong but it seems I was told by a magnus rep that the 2300 was quiter than the 1900. Since I was not familiar with SCs I knew I didn't want a loud whining noise. So between the facts of quiter, handles more HP and great experience with the 2300s and the Camaro SS I was sold.

No disrespect, but how is this helping me make an educated assessment between the 1900 and the 2300? I'm not interested in putting something on my car just because it can produce huge numbers. I want something that is going to last and not have to do a complete engine rebuild in 4 to 6 years from now.

I'm sure I will be happy with any blower, I just don't want one that is going to be overkill for what I am looking accomplish. Why i this such a hard question to answere for even for the so called experts over there?. I can't believe this is the first time this question has been presented to them.

i went with the 2300 based on thats what most have done and they have not had any issues. you can go with all stock setup on the 2300, get the warranty from magnacharger and be safe...

also in the future when you want to sell your car you can pull off the 2300 and i think there will be a more demand on the 2300 to sell later on...

If not, I will go definetly go with the 2300. It's not a money thing...its just an overkill thing i'm looking at. If I'm not going to use it, is it worth paying for it?
I'm curious too. At what point does it really matter? If we run the 1900 or the 2300 at 6psi with maybe headers and exhaust and didn't go any firther would it really matter? Does the 1900 run hotter because it works harder? Does the 1900 fit under the hood better? How much of a $$$ difference between the two is there ?

That's probably because the 1900 would have to spin faster to make the same psi at all rpms on a 6.2L and because of this the 1900 probably runs hotter. Because of both these things , I'm guessing, the 2300 would be better.

So what your saying is if you put a 1900 or a 2300 on an otherwise stock camaro you will get the same results? What about longevity of the blower and engine? It the under the hood heat and air going into the motor heat about the same ? I read somewhere that the 1900 actually was better for throttle response and low rpm snap, maybe because it is building press smoother, is this true ?


Will a 1900 support a 415 or 416 motor at 6 psi ?

It would be nice to see side by side dyno charts of the 1900 , 2300 and the edlebrock..
