Great, I think I'm going to wait until I decide to install a Maggie 2650. They should make a difference though, they did on my Hellcat.

They didn’t have one foe the Hellcat.

Only video I’ve seen from them is explaining the concept behind the kit.

I know it’s not a terribly difficult job, it’s still nice to have a visual reference from someone who’s done it. As well as any gremlins to look out for, like those rear bolts on the LT4 supercharger. They are under the cowl and will be a pain in the ass to deal with.

These two mods make a lot of sense to me which amount to a supercharger removal and reinstall which any Chevy dealer would be happy to do. One just needs the right set of wrenches. Might also be a good time to clean the Eaton.

You’d take your car to a dealership and let them do this job?!?!?! You are a brave man trusting a dealership to not screw something up while doing something like this.

NO WAY IN HELL a dealership is touching my car for something like this. They manage to screw up something as simple as mounting a license plate on a car while prepping it for delivery.


I did the install on my Hellcat two years ago, in my driveway nonetheless. No special tools were necessary with the Hellcat and none are necessary with the LT4. The issue with the Camaro is the lack of space to remove the supercharger bolts along the rear of the motor.

Im sure there is a way to do it without dismantling the entire cowl section. I’m hoping someone puts up a video of the install to save me the cursing and busted knuckles hahahaha.

Not sure what bolts you’re talking about, but I think you’re making a bigger deal out of it than it really is. Removing those bolts is required to lift the charger up for even a CC insta.

This gal did it, I think you can handle it.

LOL, no, I was referring to how common blower removal/install is. I'm sure it's in Chevy's shop hours book.

I don't recall seeing the spacer thickness but I wouldn't think it would be more than say 3 or 4mm when compressed? Surely the belt can handle this

There should be enough extra belt length in the belt to accommodate the slight added thickness. It was that way on my Hellcat.

Go to their site, they explain everything in detail. I actually inquired about the chiller, 1850 USD. The spacer and blanket is 600. might as well go the mile and do it right the first time IMHO. At first, I was wondering if I should do both. But after hearing all of their people's testimonies with just the chiller, I think the chiller is enough.
