I read another post that said KB would send a mockup blower for a small deposit. I am getting ready to install an I/C Magnuson kit, so I'm sure I could do some development work for a KB while it's all apart.
Serious guys, PM me and we can discuss some specifics.
Thanks,
Ed

I think an intercooled kit making 7PSI and a cam similar to Nineball's will put that combo over 600RWHP, the nice thing is that it would probably make about the same amount of RWTQ right off idle.
Hit me up if I can answer any questions.

I will have the first production I/C kit from Magnuson in hand on Tuesday, and post some pics. This kit is nice! I think people will really like them when the first kits ship out to customers!

I have usually seen the limit to be 9 PSI, any more boost than that, and the horsepower returns are greatly diminished.
8-9 PSI on a basically stock LS1 should be good for about 600 RWHP
Hope this helps,

Thanks for the interest guys,
The best my non I/C car has been is 11.97@116 and it's making 430RWHP/419RWTQ
I'm installing an intercooled kit now on an otherwise stock '99 Trans Am, which made 280RWHP stock so this will give a good indication of what the typical customer can expect.
Sebastian, let me know if you had any other questions, or if that answered it for you.
Here is a pic of the I/C kit, let me know if I can answer any questions,

I have a question about your kit, has anybody installed it on a stock car to compare numbers? I'm jsut curious, i'm very interested in the kit down the road because of the instant throttle response.

I'm installing one on a bone stock '99 Trans AM A/T right now, hopefully I will have numbers late next week.

That looks pretty sweet! the interesting thing here is that this car is using
the same Eaton 112 supercharger that's in my kit! This one was driven from the front like a truck kit. 8.5 PSI from an intercooled S/C is a TON of power on a street car.
