I hope you make a decision on which way YOU are going to choose for your car soon. You have created many threads and discussions which are great , but when it comes down to it, you have to make the choice. Pick your power point and go for it. If the 415 makes 600 hp try it out. If you like it great. If you don't add FI later. The type of blowers you are talking about are all bolt on. If you care about sound over actual blower performance Pete Jackson or someone similar probably makes a gear drive that would flat out scream...

As far as PD type blowers/twin screw, 69 Camaro 09 pointed out a fact that should not be overlooked:
Fesler moss = Magna Charger
Hennessey = Magna Charger
lingenfelter = Magna Charger
SLP = Magna Charger

That is pretty hard to argue with.

I presently run Roots, Centrifugal and (again shortly TT) engine combinations. They are great, but in different ways for different reasons. Again, make the decision for YOU, not what other people think.

Good Luck.

Magnuson is by far the best on the market, they do the most research and have tons of time and money into tuning. Magnuson works dirrectly with GM on all the cars and engines. All the companies are good but no one puts as much time and money into the charger as the Magna Charger. We have them in stock ready to install or ship.

Here is one we just finihsed

Hey,
Not trying to be mean or anything, but how do you know all these things and how do you know that the other companies are not putting alot of time and money into there kits as well. I know that magna been in the business for a very long time and all. It just seems your trying to make a quick buck. I dont blame you cause you own a business and all.

but just makes it sound like you are hyping them up because you sell there systems. You probably shouldnt have said "We have them in stock ready to install or ship." Just makes the whole thing you said before, like you are just want to sell them, but have no knowledge on other systems.

I agree with everything you post.
Be careful.
People have been banned for posting anything about Magnacharger and their sales guys that they don't like. Same thing for saying anything about the better options that are available......like Techco.

Yep i was there, they have the quiet drive system on the corvette and it sounds amazing, but not as loud when you mash it. At idle you cannot hear a thing. But they still have both systems available. They are done with everything and ready to give the car back to the owner.
-My Camaro is being worked on as well, and gonna be done soon too. I think i am going with the quiet drive system on mine.


Thanks for the heads up, i am not talking crap or anything about magnacharger. They are good systems and i was just saying that stuff because i felt like he was just trying to say that stuff to sell his inventory. Not comparing any superchargers

everybody is entitled to there opinion, and we live in america so we have freedom of choice. so do your own actual research and you will find that no one makes a more reliable s/c system than magnacharger. they have hands down the best customer support in the industry. thats why all the big name tuners turn to them, they wont settle for second best since there reputations are on the line. you may find another s/c that makes a few more ponies but is it reliable? does it have the support to back it up? magnacharger does, i've been running maggie blowers since '01, on my sierra, escalade and it's currently being installed on my 2ss/rs. quite a few dealers install them around me so i dont have any issues with any of them when i go in for warranty repairs.
and lets not forget about callaway, they build new vettes sold thru select chevy dealers. no one else can claim that.
pick the system you feel will work best for you, stop the hating on magnacharger and the dealers that sell there product, and just remember if you choose another system dont be hating on them if you have a problem and there's no customer support to sort it out, it was your choice to pick second best.

The only company that i heard that has bad customer support is Kenne Bell. So you cant go wrong with any other company. I hear great things from Vortech, Procharger, Whimple, Techco, etc. Also they area all reliable as well
