should i supercharge or not - Page 2

The 2300 is a great blower and has been the work horse for Magnuson for years but the 2650 is superior in everyway over the 2300. However the 2300 is cheaper, lighter and will still make great power, but not like the 2650.

You can always take the incremental approach. Go with the 2650, then add fuel, cam, etc. Later on, if you start hankering for mor power

FWIW, if I had it to do over again. I would have just stuck with the kit I picked out tried to just enjoy the power it made and be happy but boost is addicting and I fell into that trap of wanting to make more power and more power to the point that I upped the risks, killed my wallet and pretty much exceeded what any street tires could hold..

I sorta of think that's what makes the ZL1's a great all around fun car because the power is enough to be a blast but not so excessive that you have to run Drag Radials all the time or Mix e85, Meth, etc.

Best of luck with your decision!.

Yep, the funny thing is we do it again and again and again.

Just completed my Procharger install. I don't have a lot of experience with wrenches but it was a blast doing the install! First drive was last weekend and the power was fantastic. Now thinking of doing the same on the wife's C7 Stingray.

Our Magnuson and most of the other kits can be installed by the customer with some mechanical skills in a weekend. If you don't feel comfortable about doing it there are a lot of dealers that can take care of that for you.

Thank you for the recommendation.

The Maggie 2300 is a great option and can easily support 850 RWHP which is all the LT4 fuel system Cam combination can support.

Exotic fuel system are required to take advantage of the 2650s.

Call me for a great deal on a TVS 2300 system 203-753-7223
