Greater than 450 RWHP might be a little optimistic, especially with 91 octane and the compression of that motor. Unless you're running something else for fuel in there....

Don't get me wrong, I'd love for you to get 500 RWHP, that would be fantastic, but that's pushing it I think. Can't wait to hear how it turns out.

Take a look at these dyno sheets from Lingenfelter for the LS2 and Magnuson. These are at the flywheel but they look great, I want 560 HP at the crank. This is on a stock LS2 that they require a 160 degree T-Stat.

I just got back home from picking it up, the drive is 161 miles.

First impression: I could feel that the power was alot different then before. I tended to run the rpms up real high around 4500-6500 before the Radix. It know feels the best all the way from 2500-6500 rpms, it literally sits you back in the seat. On the highway it can best be described as a Freight Train (good analogy BlownChevy) it is unreal from 65-120 on a 3rd gear drop (be ready to shift real fast). The power is so linear that you dont notice how fast you are accelerating until you look at the cars that were just next to you, they are now back 1/8 mile or more within a few seconds. Getting over to my house I had a chance to run a good 1st to 2nd romp and my neck is hurting. This thing revs as fast as my 2002 Z06 did, I am going back out for a little drive.

Keep in mind that this is completely stock other then the Supercharger. I still have to do LT Headers, Full Exhaust, Intake Mods, 4.10 or 4.56 Gears then I will probably need some different pullies for the back of the supercharger to get the boost at 6-7 psi.

I need to do something about the traction first. It will still launch pretty good out of the hole from an idle and once you are moving it stays put real good. I just want some stickier tires that are a little wider (335/30R20), these are actually 1" shorter so it will effect the feel also.

I've just had a Magnacharged LS2 put together for my Ultima project by Jeff Schwartz.

He got a best of 572 hp and 555 lb ft of torque. This was on stock cast manifolds and stock vette cats..... he did quite well I think!!

The Ultima is a rear engine, so we had Magnason put together a hybrid unit with the TB facing the rear and without a jackshaft....







This is the exhaust system I am going for ..... there's at least 40HP in this, made by a Spectrum 5, they have a computer program for designing exhaust systems and do stuff for NASCAR teams. - check out the link to his 1100hp twin turbo Ultima !! http://www.spectrum5racing.com/
