First off, let me introduce myself, My name is Joe Median and I am located in California. I just purchased a 05 C6 6 speed over the holiday weekend (nice holiday sale) and now I am looking to supercharge it. I have been reading allot in the C5 section about the Magnuson supercharger, does anyone know where I can get one installed at a fair price? I must say this is the best bang for the buck car I have ever purchsed!! I traded in my H2 for this car so it is a real change for me

last i saw from their website, it was done yet, you will need a new hood though....me thinks me like the magnuson better than the procharger / paxton style. the bypass valve looks pretty good.

I called and they are still working on a few things with the system. He explained how the bypass works, VERY VERY cool deal there. I agree with you on the procharger and centrifugal systems.....Nothing like the boost right off of idle!!
