Have you considered an ECS kit or even going TwinTurbo? You won't have the heat soak that you have with the top mount blowers.

They are all good choices, I did a bunch of searching and asking questions and I went with the Heartbeat however it was the more expensive route to go at that time. But have never looked back as I love it. Great power. Here is a write if you want to read.

There are a lot of good choices, i was going go with a whipple for my vert originally but ended up going with a tt kit from agp

They are all good options. Throw the Whipple and Kenne Bell big twin screws on your consideration list as well. Throw an AGP Turbo on the list also. Research them and get some prices. They all have their positives, negatives, and place in the Camaro power adder market.

We are actually truly lucky to have so many options as Camaro owners.

I would look no further than ADM Performance's LSA Conversion. I personally delivered my car from Kansas City MO to his shop in TX and Andy put on his stage 3 kit. My car went from 376hp to 665hp! You just cant beat that. And its all factory bolt on!

What are the reasons for going with an LSA swap versus a new SLP or Maggie that are all TVS2300's? Is the power gain better with the LSA over the others?

LSA is lower price, uses GM parts, and many reviews show ADM has excellent service.

I asked Andy a similar question and he told me a 2300 will have higher peak HP, but the 1.9 LSA will have more torque. Based on the original post it sounds like either supercharger will fit your needs.

Ditto. ADM is a standard bearer and cream of the crop shop. The LSA kit is an example of their ingenuity.

If you don't mind a long read, my build can show the kit install and all that I've done, and I road race it to! Lots of pics and videos...

This is the main reason for doing an LSA install. The support at ADM, is killer, of course there a killer shop, and the price is super hard to beat.

For my money tho, I still love the ECS or TT option.

I know SLP will take my tune and modify it (included with kit) for their supercharger. Does ADM do the same? I need the tune done because I do not have a clue adding a s/c to a NA tune.

Yes they do, I would contact them.

dentnshell · 11-27-2016, 08:09 PM

I see you are a 2014... make sure your research and consider blowers that will clear your hood vent. I believe the Heartbeat and Edlebrock will clear. My LSA conversion from ADM clears with a modification to the drip tray.

I wanted a Heartbeat... Research and Price led me to the LSA. Now after having it.... I would do the LSA again in a "Heartbeat!" - My only complaint is I wish it had more supercharger whine! There is essentially no whine, or none that I can hear over the exhaust.

I am now a little biased but don't think the LSA can beat. Andy at ADM is the man,

great support. He has done so many of these, it is a cookie cutter process that works flawlessly.

We can also have the car transported from your house to our shop,Its very common place.

I can get you a quote today if needed.

If the street is what you are after, you will be more than happy with the LSA conversion. You'll own the street. I just finished mine and it is everything I was wanting and more!
