Default Any1 here with a magnacharger?


I was wondering if anyone here had a magnacharger installed in their mustang and to hear some opinions about it !
pics are also welcomed ! thanks

Or someone who has heard good or bad things about this supercharger? since http://www.magnacharger.com/sc-mustang.htm says 3,990.00 dlls for the non-intercooled silver finish, sounds like a tempting option

There was a guy here about a year ago with one on his car and he was very happy with it. Haven't heard from him since.

I said it in the other Magnacharger thread, and I'll say it again..

Magnacharger = Roots = FAIL!!

I wouldn't take a roots if someone gave it to me for free, unless I was allowed to put it on ebay..

Haha. See the post about the Roush 427R mopping up the Saleen S281 SC (with the fancy 5 spoke wheels too!)

You really ARE stupid, aren't you??

You let me know when ANYONE with a Roush gets into the 9-second mark. Hell, even the TEN second mark. There are DOZENS of Saleen-blown cars doing that. And if you open the battle to simply Twin-Screw vs Roots, then there are at least HUNDREDS of cars in the 10-second range with Twin-Screws, vs how many with Roots? Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh...


Oh yeah, and this from the guy that bought a Twin-Screw himself (Whimple HO).. Jackass..


EDIT:

Yeah, how's this for showing how efficient that blower is..

Clipped from here http://www.autoblog.com/2006/10/18/in-the-autoblog-garage-roush-427r/

Utilizing an Eaton positive-displacement supercharger and a water-to-air intercooler integrated into the intake manifold, the system applies approximately 6 PSI of boost to produce 427 HP and 391 lb-ft

6PSI and the best they can do is 365 HP at the wheels? (they took the car to a dyno later in the article - even posted the dyno sheet)

I'm only 1 PSI above where they are, and I make more power at the wheels than that thing makes at the crank. What a piece of crap.

So many fighting words exxx. Why do you think your saleen blower is all that? You arent making that much power anyways. Never heard of a saleen supercharged mustang in the 9s. Sounds impossible with that blower.
