Magnuson Superchargers

What are your feeling on these. I have a chance to get my hands on one for an LS motor. Also has anyone had any experience with them and what would you say about the power and build quality.
thank you

I think their quality is very good. The stock smog legal setups leave a bit to be desired as they run very low boost and conservative tuning. But if you get more aggressive with them, or jump into the larger blowers they can make a lot of power.

I run a Maggie on my LS2 in a '68 Camaro Conv't. The thing runs phenomenal. It's been on there for 2 years and I've logged over 20k miles on it.
Excellent power under the curve, added horsepower is slightly lower than they advertise, even with intercooler. I'm putting out 513 RWHP at 9lbs of boost.

Nothing more intoxicating than the sound of that thing as it begins to whistle under hard acceleration!

We do these all the time if you can get it at a good deal jump on it. We have a truck with over 40K miles on it and still runs strong.

As their former marketing director, I had a lot of insight on their systems. I have to tell you that hands down, there's not a better blower for the street period. I have 3 on different trucks and all of them have made great power, and still gave me great gas mileage. If you are looking to go big on horsepower, add the right cam/head combo's and you'll be set.

I have been given a ride in Jason's car. Next time, I will be doing a LS engine with Maguson blower. Hopefully there will be a next time.

Supercharging is my first choice for power.
