Almost had the same problem with mine. Ordered my maggie through SLP and went word for word on instructions during the install. Luckily I did not go very far to run completely out of coolant but I was confused for a while until I went back to the bag of extra parts and sure enough there was the the booger. My only other issue was putting on the plastic tubing to the hoses after the intercooler was dropped down...was a pain in the A and I definately tore some of it up. Redid it when the front end was off for multi-color halo install and now I don't worry about the rubber hoses rubbing anymore. It is because of thier customer service that I am exceptionally happy I chose the magnacharger!!!!

MAGNUSON RULES ...

The best proven positive displacement supercharger system available for the 2010 Camaro ... PLUS ... customer service like this ... indescribable ...

The Magna Charger was recommended to me by Andy at ADM and it was obvious why as I installed it. Quality throughout. There is no looking back now. After the replacement part from magnuson arrives. The car goes into Andy for a stage 2 blower cam, CAI and a custom tune as only Andy can do ...

I will post results and video as testimony to the brilliance of The MAGNA CHARGER.

Thanks to Brian, Jon and everyone else at Magnuson ... thanks for a great product and extreme customer service ... refreshing ...

Thanks for posting this, I just checked my kit and found the brass plug, so I will make sure to bolt that into the intercooler before my install this weekend

Jessika · 08-13-2010, 11:45 AM

Just so that anyone who finds a red plug in their heat exchanger, or extra parts after an install, here is what the infamous brass plug looks like.
If you are missing it, please let us know and we will get one out to you right away!

victoryred1ss · 08-13-2010, 01:12 PM

Hey Jessika is there supposed to be two brass plugs in the kit? I have one in my kit but it is a little different than that one pictured. Thanks

Jessika · 08-13-2010, 02:17 PM

Could you post a picture of the plug you have?

victoryred1ss · 08-13-2010, 03:41 PM

I dont have a scanner, but the brass bolt I have is like the one in the picture except it doesnt have the screw in the middle, its just a plug

Jessika · 08-13-2010, 05:12 PM

PM me or call me with your name & address. I will send you a replacement

.
But in the meantime, you can install the solid one this weekend and just swap it out for the bleeder screw version.
