What about the new LYSHOLM. You can get good low end while maintaining the boost in the top end because of the twin screw technology! On the other hand if you wanted to go all out race and road course I would definitely recommend the reliability and efficiency of the Vortech.

If your not building your motor the 1900 is a excellent choice.

500? That's not even S/C numbers for an LS3 motor! I've heard of MANY people achieving 500rwhp on NA. A good cam alone will let you push close to 500.

If 500 is your goal.. I wouldn't even worry about a supercharger. Cam, LT Headers plus exhaust, CAI, and a GOOD tune should get you up there.

I myself am running CAI, Muffler Delete, Tune, 150shot N2O and push well past the 500 mark. (though granted my N2O use is limited)

Go whipple 600rwhp out of the box it's all you'll need for a street brawler,

I agree whipple is probably one of the best ... but 600 rwhp? Unlikely... check here

Probably around 510-530rwhp without a cam... Depending on which cam you go with, you will get over 600rwhp.. I have a Maggie, 3.4 Pulley, ADM Stage II Cam, Headers, High flow cats, ADM Street CAI, Innovators West 8-Rib Pulley system and I am at 625rwhp..

Been there on a lot of cars and different brands of superchargers. I'm a turbo guy now. It just does more with less.

TT FTW... Perfectly mannered daily driver, and as much power as you could want when you get after it...

Sorry, I know you asked about Superchargers... Which turbos actually are, but yes, if you want limited, you could go with the 1900 and do well....

I like roots type. For me it was between edelbrock and magnacharger. True the Edelbrock makes slightly more low end torque and comes in a clean package, but from the research I did the intercooler is not as effective and it runs hotter. The major selling point for me is the Magnacharger is the proven desigh there are plenty of shops that are using it for a reason.

camaro4mybday · 04-04-2011, 05:02 AM

for a daily driver street use car the roots type is the best for where you want the power and torque, edelbrock, magnacharger and kenne bell and all great blowers, the little differences between each are slight, for you it will come down to picking the one that fits your budget and looks good to you. one thing you have to remember is its a street car, how much are you going to live above 4500-5000 or higher, look for one with the best power off idle to 4000 because that is where you use it most in the street

If it was my personal car, I wouldn't. I'd rather have some room to grow like you have with the 2300.

same here... edelbrock runs much hotter from my research... which is why I ended up with a Whipple, which runs MUCH cooler... here in florida that can make a big difference ... plus whipple is a 2.9L ... magna and edel are only 2.3 L
