Default Magna Charger TVS 2300 in a C5 Z06

While I was doing my own search, I noticed several people inquiring about it. All I'll say is, Magna Charger has them and they'll be available off-the-shelf shortly, if not already. As for hood clearance, it does require an aftermarket unit and we went with the Lingenfelter Supercharger hood.

Regarding the power - I have no complaints and loving every bit of it. This is a completely stock LS6 with a GMS axle back system. Baseline numbers showed 350 rwhp and jumped to 492 rwhp at just 7 psi. We're still running the factory MAF, so I expect to see additional gains when we step up to the larger 100mm setup.

Overall drivability is exceptional, meaning it's very docile under normal driving conditions and an absolute monster when you get on the loud pedal.

Very nice power gains, I bet the torque is even more impressive!

Those TVS2300 blowers seem pretty stout. Can you post your dyno sheet? How hard was the install?

This is great to see.. I'm very interested in this setup.

However, the 2300 is just barely breathing at that power level.. Considering 500ish rwhp is "normal" for the much smaller 112/122's, I'd like to see what happens when you turn the wick up a bit.

I won't be able to scan it until later, but I'll type up a few numbers when I get home.

As for the install, Magna Charger was kind enough to handle the work so it went together easily.

Yeah, it's very impressive, especially for a stock engine. It's already putting down over 400 lb-ft from 2,300 rpm on

Exactly. I've got a few things brewing, so its just a matter of time before we try it.

I need to upgrade the MAF next and check out the gains. The Z has always been fun, but I'm digging it a lot more now.

AVB, I haven't forgotten about you; I'm getting the hood painted and should know as soon as I get it back.
