I am looking to buy a new Camaro SS and I want to imediately throw a supercharger on the LS3 like a Magnuson. I was wondering is there a way to use a intercooler for these superchargers. I don't mean like the LS9/Edelbrock type intercooler, I was thinking more like a front mount. Also what is considered the best supercharger for these engines. I know there are several to choose from. Thanks Michael

I have done just that. I also realize I posted a stupid question since they come with "intercoolers." I know that FMIC are used for turbo/procharger but I was just curious. I now realize this. I also now realize how crapy the magnacharger and magnuson charger is compared to the whipple and kenne bell chargers. I think I am going to go with a whipple and see what happens.

Do you realize that when someone asks a question, they are actually trying to learn...? You could try giving an informative answer instead of being a smart ***... Some of us weren't born knowing these things.

Take a look at the above link, as you asked what is considered to be the best supercharger for these engines. Give me a call at 260 672-2076 for pricing much lower than what I can put into print for the systems available at the following link. http://shop.brutespeed.com/2010-11-C...stems_c644.htm If you call today (Sunday) leave a message and I'll call you back later today. Bob

Okie dokie. I learned something too. I'm not up on supercharger tech, I thought 'front mounted intercooler' meant the heat exchanger/radiator part, but because of this thread I went out and read up on it and now I see what it is too. So I learned my new fact for the day....

Yeah I now realize they are internally cooled like the LS9. Some of the reason for my question was because of the heat exchanger, but I did not do my reasearch until now. Like stated before I will be going with the Whipple on the stock engine to start out with. The exhaust will be upgraded to LT's and duals with cut outs. After I get bored with that setup I will most likely do a rebuild on the motor with accomidating mods else where of course.
I was looking at Mast Motorsports and their 416 LS3 is making 750hp on a TVS 2300. I have heard the Whipple can make up to 650RWHP on a completely stock car. So with a built FI motor and the Whipple 800rwhp should be acheivable.
I also have no intention on running a Procharger. I do not like the way they are set up on these cars and I will have the ZR1 style hood for when I am crusing and doing car shows. This way I will be able to show off the bling.
