well to each there own, it's like they say different strokes for different folks, and boost being the same, 7#s they are right where the other superchargers are running.

I think positive displacement is great on a truck that needs the power down low......in a light weight vehicle like a vette......its tire spin and useless and ineffiecient up top where you want the power in a vette

How much boost can you get out of these? Drove in a buddies 99 Saturday night that just had a 427 installed and had the Maggie put back on. The had to repulley it to put out 6#s.

I'm really interested to hear more about the 2009 ZR1's supercharger and find out about retrofitting it to other LSx cars.
I will go on record and say that I think the Maggie is "junk".
I will also say that Funcool's self control is impressive seeing that he has not broken anything.
For a guy who owns an automatic car that REFUSES to rebuild the transmission or go with forged internals in the future, I think the Maggie is great.
I'd personally do a Maggie on an automatic Trailblazer SS or a 2009 Pontiac G8.
I can't wait to see Funcool step up to a ECS Paxton or a TTi-X and makes some serious power with that forged motor.
Once Funcool does that, we can FINALLY stop hearing about the Maggie.

I am seeing forged 402 with big heads and maggies spinning and only running low 11's to high 10's..not worth the $8000-$10000 they cost.
