maggie questions
Is there any major difference in the 4th and 5th Gen maggies?
I have heard some guys mention that they prefer the NON intercooled version; Is there any truth in this?
Is the 112 the best size for the LS1 engine?
Thanks guys

Wow. really??
I run a centrifical myself, but was looking at the maggie fro someone on another forum, and the guy (I know, they'll say anyhting) claims he was making about 490rwhp on a close to stock LS1

I've got the 112 and I'm making 480 RWHP with a fairly conservative tune... but its basically maxed out on airflow. I gotta tell you though, it's reliable as hell and she runs fine in 110 deg heat all day at track events with no problems.
If you can find a 122 go for it. My next car will have a twin screw .

Well yeah, so will and F4 over an F1. Doesn't mean it's necessary or "overkill" for your needs/goals.
I've thought about upgrading to a 122, will it fit under a 4th gen. f-body hood?

I have an MP122 on my 6.0L truck. It plays real nice. It gets into boost at the tap of my right foot. I can see 5 to 6 psi at low rpm with way less than half throttle. It's a front drive and I see 9psi at WOT with a 2.8" blower pulley. I think that the MP122, or a TVS1900 would be a killer setup on a 5.7L motor. You wouldn't "run out" of blower too quick. With a mild blower cam and all the bolt ons, you could keep boost below 10psi and hp well north of 550 at the wheels.
