Z28Dave

Alright so i've been wanting to SC or TC my Z28 for a while now but i wasn't sure what to get. so i did some research and i found a particular liking to the Magnacharger Systems they take place of intake manifold and hood clearance doesnt seem to be a problem. so then i found the STS turbo and was thinking the turbo is mounted to the exhaust and there is piping that leads to the throttle body up front, hmmmm maybe i can put the magnachager and a sts turbo since the 2 systems shouldn't interfere with one another installation wise right?

I need opinions and maybe someone thats crazy like myself to enlighten me more as what i'll need to do to handle the boost

it can be done if youa have a tuner that can manage it all, and obviously you would have to have one hell of a built motor, tranny, rear, fuel system, and suspension to use any of the power.

its been done a couple of times on trucks, two of the three ive read about have ditched the supercharger and gone straight turbo. check out performancetrucks.net

I would stick just to the turbo IMO...

It will work. Just make sure you use a good size turbo. (That out flows the supercharger) not some B.S. 60-1. What happens is the turbo will feed the supercharger and cause the supercharger to freewheel.

The perks: Good low end power, quicker turbo spool time.

The downfall: Supercharger is now acting as a restriction and causing unecessary heat. extra weight etc.

The COOKIE MONSTER is right, Just stick with the Turbo. LOL

turbo....spending too much money. theres a reason why the "fast cars" dont do it.
build the engine to make the torque and the turbo to flow up top.

notice the procharger bypass before the maf... and supercharger. they made something like 1000whp on pump, IIRC.

Waste of money IMO. Just go turbo.
