Default Magnuson

I have read several posts on the Magnuson as related to the LS1. Is there anyone out there that has it on an LS6?

My car is an '02 ZO6 -- long tube headers and Donaldson airbox, icags, etc. nothing dramatic excep the SC.

I have the LPE SC kit which they shipped to me and I had put on here by an ASE cert. mechanic. Everything fit well and it works well. LPE "guessed at" the ecu programming as they had not had an 02 ZO6 in their shop yet to tune when they programmed mine (I was customer #3 and they go in order). Have not dynoed it yet but the car has A LOT more power. Not the torquey monster I expected down low with a SC, however. It has more power and torque at low RPM, of course, but it puolls harder and harder as the revs build. Above 5,000 RPM in first is worthless (I have stock tires).

It is a good kit. I posted a bunch of info about it elsewhere under the forced induction forum, my Id name. Also answered questions about the "warranty" -- about worth what you pay for it.
