All I have to do is figure out a wiring glitch to get it up and running.

 

what supercharger is that?

i didn't think a roots would fit under our hoods?

 

It is a radix from magnacharger. I have a silverado ss btw.

 

They fit under a vette hood, is yours a tighter fit than that? What do you drive? I can 100% promise it will fit a Tahoe.

 

BlownChevySS,
How big a pill are you gonna shoot through the Radix?

 

Like I said I have the 03 Silverado SS. The sc fits fine, especially with the cowl hood I have. I plan on starting with a 35 shot and running up to 50 for now. I have to figure out a wiring problem, get a window switch and new fuel pump first before I spray though. A timing tuner might be nice too.

 

Inline fuel pump or fuel pump voltage booster for sure. The tuner would be most helpful, don't want to run to lean while spraying I was told that I would not need a window switch because of the small (35-50) shot. Fuel pressure safety switch is a good idea as well if you don't have one. Let me know how it works out. I have a kit in the garage waiting

 

Why not put it in though? If you aren't that far from me I could help you.

 

I just got it in a week ago. Finding time is the hard part. I live in the Fl panhandle, near pensacola. Where are you? I have to get the bigger injectors in and, a fuel pump voltage booster. These thing are all on the way. The thing is I can't install them until I go to the tuner. I have to install the injectors and booster in thier parking lot because I can't drive the truck on a 38# tune with 44# injectors and I don't have tuning software. It's gonna be a PITA.

 

Damn. I live by Miami. I got new injectors when I got the sc. 42 pounders.

 

I got the 42#'ers when I got the S/C as well but sold them because they had different clips than my wiring harness. I have the Flex Fuel version I already had 38# injectors stock so I was ok, until I went and pullied down. Now I need bigger ones and especially with N2O. I have to buy adapters for the plugs to fit right. Miami is only 11 or so hours driving time. An 11 hour drive to help a perfect stranger do mechanical work you won't get paid for seems perfectly reasonable to me. When do you wanna drive up?

 

i have a WS6, i always thought you had to cut the hood to fit a roots style

 

The radix actually replaces the entire intake manifold on the engine. It only sits 2 inches or so higher than the stock intake, if that much. I grabbed some quick pics for ya.

 

sweet

whats the power output on that thing?

 

I had a custom tune done when it was stock (except for an exhaust) and got 230rwhp/284rwtq. I added the blower with a 9 pound pulley and 4.10 gears (from a 3.73) and ended up with 413rwhp and 447rwtq. So about 180rwhp from the blower. If I can ever get to a track I would like to see what it will do on and off the spray. The company, Magnacharger, claims 63% to 125% power increase. I got about 78%. This is with the 9pound pulley. The kit comes with a 6lb pulley and a tune for that. I never dyno'd after the 6# pulley so I'm not sure whrere that would have put me. It's fun to drive I think the Corvettes get the biggest increases from this unit.

 

Nice,
And you are using a quality nitrous system there..

on a 4gen f body you have to cut the cowl or lower the motor a couple of inches somehow.

 

What are the switch and button hooked to? Is the rocker switch to arm the WOT switch? And the button? I'd like alot of pics of your setup as it will be exactly like mine.

 

I fixed the wiring. It was the momentary switch. I will get you more pics, but I am not sure of what you exactly want.

 

I'd just like to see how you secured the noids and tapped into the air intake tube, stuff like that. Just to get ideas for when I do mine. Is that a switch on your floorboard in the last pic? For the WOT switch? So if its fixed, have you tried it out yet?
