...... Tony is right having worked on very few ls2's it is hard to say. As for boost Gen III ls1's worked on plenty. His car was left on the rich side due to intake air temps that roots style blowers tend to see. Given he was going to the year one and I believe he was doing some auto crossing or something to that effect I felt the afr needed to be left that way. We did do a 4 gear pull on the mustang dyno felt great no knock and stayed really nice in relation to AFR. Been in the car the TQ is there in an instant.

It also had 0 knock retard during the tuning sessions, even with a blazing hot blower.
SOTP-wise, it feels much quicker than any car I've owned so far. Mostly because it is so lightweight. Its about 200 lbs lighter than the Formula and the 69 Camaro. Those cars would have needed 700 rwhp to hang with this one from a roll.
Blower is ultra quiet until about 6K rpm. It screams up to 7K rpm and sounds wicked.
On a stock C6, the Magna is worth about 120 rwhp (estimated). If they pull 350-355 rwhp stock, they should make around 470-475 rwhp with a Magna at low psi.
