What you see in those pics is the blower/intake manifold/intercooler. They're bolted together as a unit (one piece, box one).
Box two is literally everything else you need. Heat exchanger, plumbing, wires, instructions, belt, etc etc etc etc

This dude says you need a box 2 from magnuson to make it complete. Since you just installed it what the hell is he talking about. Im assuming the kit comes in two boxes and i need the second one??
?? All you would of needed was some misc. Hoses and a $20 harness? Comes with everything else and upgraded 60lb injectors.

kinda off the subject, but whatever. I have seen a few people running LS7 clutches with their maggied setup. I really dont wana pay 1700$ for an LS9 clutch. I dont launch at all; just kinda stick to road racing. Will it hold up?

Buy once cry once, Ls7 clutches were put in 3100lb cars with 500crank hp. Your gonna spend a good bit of money putting one in a 4000lb car with a blower and a lot more torque. Id just buy a twin disk like Mcleod or RPS and be done with it.

I think the LS7 clutch is a good OEM replacement but looking at cost, I just dont see why people dont move to an aftermarket setup. Like itsslow said, you're buying a product for a dramatically lighter car (and in your case) a much greater amount of HP.

yeah, but it's so suprising how our stock clutch holds up for so many people

Yep my LS6 has been great, but I really havent launched the car more then about 5 times in 3 years. Plus im really not making a ton more power over stock on motor. Having a roots blower I would pony up the extra money and do a clutch one time, not to mention most twin disks are fully rebuildable so 40k miles down the road if its slipping itll be a lot cheaper to replace.

Sounds good, I wouldnt throw any more money at that blower setup that thing is borderline maxed out. Thats the reason i never put a 112 on my car and you have a 6.0. Start saving for a TVS1900 or 2300.
