Who wants to get supercharged? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Z86CamaroSS · 10-16-2008, 02:39 PM

not only am i waiting for my SS, but also for whipple to come out with a blower for one. that will be SICK!

Centrifugal superchargers suck. Just throwing that out there, go with Magnuson or Magnacharger who will also have a twin screw setup for Camaro.

PatrickfromMD · 10-16-2008, 10:17 PM

From what have read , I'm sold on the Magnuson. Its supose to bybass and allow it to only draw less than 1 hp. Now that efficent. If you go, Magnuson count me in. Hell, isnt the larger one the one used on the ZR!? I'm going the L99 route, but I have not run nto anything that says it cant be done.
I'm Number 8 at my dealer for mine BTW

If they can give you special dealer pricing for a bulk order, it should save a significant amount. If they give you bulk pricing as a retail order, maybe not as much. Thoughts?

Maybe if a few of us that live not too far apart we can organize a weekend road trip to some place with a large garage/warehouse where we can all install together.
Or maybe a place with a Dyno where we can get some bulk dyno time to baseline before install, baseline after install, and then after fine tuning.
Just thinking out loud...

ZZcamaro · 10-17-2008, 12:58 PM

I am all for the group install. I actually have a couple places that coudl work local for me, or we could try to arrange something closer to a larger group of folks...

As for pricing..I am approaching people as a dealer so that I can get the best deal possible for us all. I am not going to mark up anything, as I want a system just as much as you all do.

Now I have heard from Procharger whom said we coudl try to work something out, and I am also in discussions with a well known F-body company who builds custom turbo setups who said we could also try to work something out. Would any of you be interested in either of those deals???

I can run both deals if I can get enough people for each...I would think 10 a piece would get us some good pricing cuts... Post on here, AND PM ME IF INTERESTED< THAT IS HOW I KEEP A LIST!!!!

Rallyman6 · 10-17-2008, 01:03 PM

I was going to opt for the 21" rims - but spending $4,600 is crazy.
I will put that towards a supercharger instead.

ZZcamaro · 10-17-2008, 01:06 PM

Rallyman....what are you looking to install? PM me if interested.

We have 6 folks interested...not bad for 4 months till delivery! The more we get the cheaper it gets!

Yeahyouknwit · 10-17-2008, 01:33 PM

im interested just gotta make sure i get my camaro first. What part of maryland are you in?

ZZcamaro · 10-17-2008, 01:35 PM

I am in PA. If you want to be added to the list of interested people please send me a private message so I can keep a list.

This makes 7...

I have 2 for turbos also!!!

I think we are going to have some BADA$$ camaros right away!

Rallyman6 · 10-17-2008, 01:42 PM

I also want to wait until I get the car break the motor in while it's natually aspirated.

Then I would think - according to my Chevrolet Parts Dept. - We will get a GM Perfomance Supercharger through GM??

Not sure - I work for the dealer so I get 10% over our cost

I want a sleeper that rapes.

Rims say "Look at me"
Blower says "bye bye"

i have the procharger setup on my current truck. other then having to find a tuner for it i'm pretty happy with it. i would probably go with them again if you can get the group going unless magnuson or another brand can prove that there better.

haulass350 · 10-17-2008, 06:18 PM

interesting, i know thats probably the only thing i dont like about teh procharger is on my truck it takes forever it seems like to hit full boost, on teh bottom end just seems like its still N/A. i know its not though, guess i'm just getting to used to it.

wm holden

did the magnuson kit come with different injectors or a booster pump or what? i know the procharger kit came with a aux fuel pump and a FMU. how does the mag kit handle the extra fuel needs? i only ask cuz your sig says no other mods.
