I am not knocking the 2300, it is a 900 HP supercharger, however I personally find the 1900 more fun on the street and quicker on the bottom end.

So your saying you have an L99 or Ls3 currently with the 1900 on it?

If you have a stock motor, or basic supporting mods like a blower cam, the 1900 is best. If you have heads, more displacement and what not, then you want the 2300.

Remember, your engine is an air pump. The 1900 can "pump" in all the air it needs, and then some. The 2300 is more like "and then some plus more".

I think I'm leaning towards the 1900 now.

Can you post pics? I and others here would like to see what the 1900 looks like under the hood compared to the 2300. I wondering if thre is a difference in looks at just a glance. If someone (vendor) could even post a pic of the two housings sided by side to get a size comparison that would be great.

Heres what I was able to grab, I hope it helps.
The black blower is the 1900, chrome 2300.

It is hard to tell in the pics, but the easiest way to compare the dimensions of the TVS1900 vs the TVS2300 is that the 1900 is one "rib" shorter than the 2300. Other than the difference in housing/rotor length, all of the other dimensions are the same.

Ill try to get up a picture,as i told you on the phone it would take a sharp guy to notice the difference when you pop the hood.I love the 1900

Just curious...what do these two kits weigh? Also, I know the 2300 is a bigger blower than the 1900, but why is there a difference in length between the two? Keep in mind I am ignorant to any type of knowledge when it comes to superchargers.

The difference in length is the difference in displacement (1900 cc's vs 2300 cc's).

Huh? My 2300 came with LS9 60lb injectors in it. I believe ALL 2300 kits have new injectors in them. The earlier versions only had 45lb injectors so that may be what she is referring to....

[Jessika]

Ok, I was wrong (im still learning)
The 1900 & 2300 camaro kit does come with LS9 injectors (which are 52lb injectors).

Sorry for the confusion.
The 1900 G8GT kit does not include injectors, but the 2300 GXP does.

good info guys...

so it sounds like the 1900 will be best for a blower+header+cai combo...

questions for Jon...
-is there a weight savings 1900v2300
-does the 1900 have a carb#
-what can you expect to put down.... 1900+CAI+tune?
-for the 1900, what is standard boost? and how much more boost/RWHP does the next size pulley create?...

thanks a ton for the info guys!

Just curious....what makes you think that the 1900 will be "better" for a blower/header/cai combo?

from the little research that i have found, its a basic sizing matter.
referance post #41.

If you are not going to change the heads or the CR, and plan on boosting under 10lbs... then the 1900 may be a better fit.

and in some dyno testing ive found... the 1900 makes more power than the 2300 on a stock motor.

the 2300 needs headers to match in output. (actualy requires 12+ more HP to turn it.)

please dont quote me... im just gathering info, and trying to find the BEST product for MY application...
