I got a first hand look at the Magnuson Heart beat 2300

I've been in Australia visiting with our distributor VCM Performance who happens to be developing the new HeartBeat supercharger kits for the Camaro and other Holden cars.
All I can say is wow! I was very impressed with the fit and performance #'s it made on the Holden HSV GTS they had it in.
This car was a heads and cam car with headers and cat back, it put down just right at 700 rwhp on e-85.
I also got to ride in it, what a fun car.

We may very well help with getting the kit here in the states when they are done with development.

As a G8 owner, I just got wood. Damn that car is sexy. I really like the Heartbeat so far. I will be watching this for sure.

Maybe on the good one. On the other one they only care about keeping their ultra rare car bone stock so it will bring GNX money at Barrett Jackson in a few years.

I have a Maggie 112 on my TA. It's too small and I need more boost. Would love to make this head unit fit.
