Maggy 2300?
Ive seen a few posts about doing the swap but never any info after the swap was completed. Anyone have personal experience with this?
Also,
If Im shooting for 700WHP, think this will get me there?
2016 LT4
Maggy 2300
AFE CAI
Long tube headers
deleted cats.....
ported TB
93 octane
Im thinking that should get close...

You will need a cam or meth to get to 700. For fueling

700whp is a pretty simple target. I was running just over 700whp through the A8 with about 8psi with pump e85 (e70) and no alky. My package looked really close to this:
Magnusson Heartbeat blower 85mm pulley (8.5psi at 6200rpms)
e85 - from pump @ e76
JRE Rough idle cam
JRE drop in pistons
Kooks LT headers with race pipes
ZL1 in-tank pump, LT4 HPFP, LT4 injectors
JMS Voltage booster
Rotofab CAI
Highlights are:
705.82 whp and 698.09 wtq

I think the challenge is your cam. E85 and a can and you are over 700whp easy. You can definitely get over 700whp with alky too if that is your cup of tea. In that case you don’t need the cam and can run 93 octane.

Nice. My problem is the availability of e85. I just cant find anywhere nearby me that offers it.
I prefer to run on 93 because I can always find that. Is your car an LT1 or LT4?

The dyno was from my LT1 Camaro (A8) at about 8psi. I was over 800whp but ran out of injector so I dialed it back to 12psi (776whp for winter). Once I get my stupid GM converter replaced we can finish tuning.

With a cam, 18% lower + the mods you list above I was @ 660whp on the stock blower on pump 93 only.
From there I did a bigger cam + heads + ported stock blower which pushed me a little over 700whp.
The 2300 could easily make 700whp on 93 as a bolt-on with as long as you have the fueling (meth, cam, secondary, whatever.) to support 700whp at your DA etc.

This config was about 720whp. You would only be spinning at about 10 psi...barely pushing the Maggie at that level. No alky and no e85.
This was for the LT1 and this was my exact config to run over 700whp on 93 octane with no issues. Obviously you wouldn’t need the fuel upgrades. I added forged pistons too so that I could go higher...and I dropped 2 psi to run the same power with e85. I am not a fan of alky injection as I like to see the fuel system with the ability to supply what is needed. Obviously, Alky works....just not my favorite path.
Magnuson Heartbeat
85 mm pulley
Rotofab cai
JRE rough idle blower cam package
Kooks Lt headers ceramic coated w green cats
LT4 low, high side and injectors
JMS fuel pump voltage booster
catch can.
NGK 6 plugs
MSD wires
180 degree T stat.
93 octane pump fuel
JRE custom tuning via HPtuners.

You can reach those power levels with the stock blower and yield more torque in most cases. The money spent on a blower could be used on fueling mods.
Hogurt, JRE hates meth ... seems as he thoroughly convinced you haha.. its a means, 1000 tuners love it, 1000 tuners dont.

Ted definitely prefers to build the fuel system to support the power goals without requiring something like alky to make up for a deficient fuel system. I go back and forth...many of my buddies are running alky so I am firmly undecided..
