Magna Charger TVS1900 Install PICS I am starting this thread to feature the install of the MP1900 Supercharger System on my 2008 G8 GT. I will be posting up before and after Dyno Runs, Before and during install pictures with technical data as we go along. The install will Start on Wednesday and the dyno baseline is tomorrow.
