Default What if...

... I suggested to Magnuson to sell me a upper intake piece for direct meth injection and/or nitrous research? What if I offered my truck to Magnuson to do it themselves if they were so inclined? (hint: fix the 90mm pinch too...) ... I doubt it as their mission statement through their actions dictates factory conservatism. Don't get me wrong... I am a conservative What if we concentrate on how EFFECTIVELY we can produce tire blistering power on command through the cubes and hyper-you-cracked-it pistons we have... and the existing Maggies we have? What if we produce something that can be a TRUE COMPLIMENT to an outstanding streetable kit?! Is it truely MORE boost needed... or AFTERMARKET HOMEWORK on obtaining efficiancy on what we have including upgraded like the MP112HH... or the MP122HH...

... fuel delivery and drivetrain discussions not included... as its a foregone conclusion...

Lets discuss...

They would put you on the R&D list and get you in the shop around 2020

This is a project better left to racers and the aftermarket. Magnuson is a supercharger system manufacture. The engineer their kits to do EXACTLY what they do.

Great thought though!

Yes... they DO do exactly what their intention is and more than likely come close to if not matching longevity expectations of GM if left untouched... installed as supplied and tuned by Magnuson... just trying to stretch the imagination of what can be done assuming Magnsuon doesn't want to delve into pushing efficiancy with adders... other than boost. If Magnuson has no intention to address consumers who want to push existing kits with guys willing, with money, to do so then it is cool. There is a market for it... that cannot be denied. Whether it could be a profitable market is another question...
I pose the question not asking for more boost but to ask for the same power I had on the first WOT...and the second... and the third... if a manifold based solution can help. If there is a market for it then I might be willing to try something. If not... then its still good because we discussed it here...
