Best blower kit for torque stock LS1?
I am trying to make 550-575 rwhp with as close to equal torque as I can get. Which kit is best with a stock engine, no headers--just the blower kit? I have had a blower before on an LS-6. I won't name names but the torque was only 433 lbft on a stock LS6 with no headers. The hp on the top end was there, but the torque was anemic. Any advice? Dyno sheets? Thanks.

Magnacharger in FI or Stroker naturally aspirated both gives what you looking for and both will cost ya around same money, another cheap for torquish feel, lower gears. If i had to start fresh, i would pull my stock LS6, and drop in a LS3 (oil pan to intake, small cam and ported LS3 heads, C6 Z06 stock exhaust) and done with it, With NA dont have to fck around with belt slip, methanol, gauges, heat soak.....etc all that crap and plenty of room in engine bay. Your choice.

Who said that?
Regardless, if you want instant full TQ with HP that falls flat up top go roots, in the centrifugal world the ECS kit will make more TQ then any other centri kit.

Having had a magnuson on my last C5, and now a A&A kit, I will say that both are very good. You WILL have heat soak with the magnuson, unless you do a major cooling system upgrade. So far, I am very impressed with the A&A kit. Drives very docile under 2K, with mid and top end power that will rip your head off. My A&A kit is running the minimum amount of boost for daily driving and feels great. I was always a PD blower guy, but this A&A kit really has me thinking differently. I am making around 570hp and 510 torque at the crank.(stock LS1) Plenty for what I need, which is daily driving and no drag racing. Good luck.
