MP 2300 vs TVS 2300
Since I want to install one of these babies in my car, I’ve been doing some research about the manacharger and came up on the "new and improved" version of the TVS which is the MP 2300 also by mangnuson. Supposedly, the MP is the exact same thing that's on the ZR1 Vette (LS9 engine). I'm leaning more for the MP, but most of the success stories we have seen in the forum are with the TVS...
So which one is the best option for the Camaros LS3 engine? Should I go with the new and improved MP or the old reliable and proven TVS? http://www.magnusonproducts.com/mp23006thgen.htm |

to me, it looks like you'd want the MP just for efficiency. its my understanding that with the 180 degree twist with 4 lobes means you won't have to spin it as fast to make as much boost. so technically it would create boost easier and just be an overall more efficient system. since the supercharger wont be spinning as fast, you won't be making as much heat, making the whole intercooling process easier. i don't know if easier is the right word, but yeah, there is a reason why GM performance division went with this type of supercharger for the zr1 and not a 3 lobe.

I think, just to be clear, it should be pointed out it's the rotors, if I'm not mistaken, that are shared with these blowers; the cases are propriatary, if you will. Eaton makes the rotors for GM and Magnuson, but GM and Magnuson (as well as Edelbrock) actually cast their own rotor cases. I was confused about this for the longest time...

If I ever claim I have nothing to learn from anyone here, call me on it. There's so much to learn here it's crazy. That doesn't mean I'm always open to learn, lol , but that doesn't mean I know more than any of you

MP2300 is Magnuson's Magnacharger model number. TVS refers to the actual rotor assembly which is Eaton's parts.
The TVS 1900 and TVS 2300 are internals that are manufactured by Eaton and sold to other supercharger manufacturers that engineer their own housings and use Eaton's internals. The Eaton TVS1900 Blower is the actual system on the CTS-V and the Eaton TVS2300 Blower is the actual system on the ZR1.

Awesome info... Now what's the difference between the ls3 engine and the engine on both the CTS V and the ZR1, besides the SC?

MORE INFO: The 2010 Camaro SS's 376-cubic inch, LS3 uses the same case as the Corvette ZR1's LS9, except for the "SC" engine's larger head bolt threads, piston oilers, forged steel main caps and its deck plate honing process. Other than that, everything done for the LS9 block carries into the new Camaro's LS3. Last edited by JICPerformance; 12-12-2009 at 04:06 PM. |
