Maggie owners - what other mods? Who else has a MagnaCharger and what are you running for boost? What other mods have you done to get more out of your car? I've got the Kooks 17/8", catted 3" X pipe, Z06 Ti muflers, Blackwing, 918 springs, chrommoly PR's and a 3.3" pulley. Very soon I'm going to a 2.9" pulley while getting a custom grind cam installed by Slowhawk with a new tune.
Has anyone come across the limits a Maggie has? Their tech service told me they can run 10 PSI w/o issue and some have run even higher. I sent my S/C out to have it refurbed since it has 41k on it and the bypass valve roller bearings were worn. Should be like new again.

No plans to go North of 9-10 for me. I should be getting the Maggie back by the end of next week so I hope to get the car down to your place the week after. How's your schedule looking Don?

No biggie, I'm fine waiting since the car will just be sitting until the roads clear up. I'll PM you when the car is ready and then you'll have a good 4-6 weeks to do it so I'm flexible.Sounds like you'll need the vacation too!

I've read about it but never heard anything other than internet lore
