[L78toLT1]

Jhunsberger’s winter project post inspired me to share the details of my Maggie Super Street Brawler based winter project. I’ve been gathering parts for several months and as of 12pm Sunday, my winter project is officially in work. I had a few free hours and I jacked the car, removed the hood and fascia and drained the fluids. Here, following Jhunsberger’s format, are the details of my project.
my 16 SS M6 currently sits with the following mods:


568rwhp/567tq (10-2018)
Magnusson 2300, 95mm pulley
Rotofab Dry
Pray ported stock TB
Kooks 1 7/8 headers jet hot coated with high flow cats into factory NPP exhaust
LT4 low side pump
NGK plugs
MSD wires with shields
Metco valve cover breather
AEM Xseries wideband gauge
Car was remote tuned by Ted Jannetty using SCT X4.

The mods below I will be installing over the winter, all purchased and delivered:
JMS boostapump
LT4HPFP & injectors
Skidmark garage E85 sensor kit.
Jannetty smooth idle cam kit
85mm upper pulley
GPI drop in piston/rod combo – Ted, I believe you on the stock pistons, but I’ll just sleep better going forged.
ARP main stud kit -see above
Balance rotating assy – I’m old school and it’s cheap insurance. I will be very interested in how much metal needs to be added or removed to balance.
I will be remote tuning with Ted Jannetty using HPTuners.

I am debating whether to install a catch can as part of my project; I don’t want to beat a long dead horse on this subject but would be interested in opinions on the best can & mounting solution for a Maggie equipped car.

Here’s a few pics documenting my modest progress. I will update photos as things progress.
