Supercharging a 2019
I am thinking about supercharging my 2019 GS. Anyone have experience with this?
Let me know what you used and your thoughts and experiences.
Does it sound better?
Thanks much, Chris

My best friend has an ECS supercharger on his 2019 GS convertible and he loves it. I believe that AMP did that install and it makes about about 700 RWHP. Even with the high summer heat down here in DFW it pulls like a freight train. It sounds awesome.

Centri power builds vs the immediate torque of roots style blowers. OP, lots of threads for you to read through. Always a good decision to ‘get blown’!!!

I would guess supercharger, headers, meth to 700whp. Some are running without fuel upgrades or pistons.

Its not so much bad pistons but the ring gap in this c7 is so close with a blower it will brake with too much boost at all on them... Robert

I have a Magnusson heartbeat setup that goes with my arh longtube headers and I'm at about 575whp with a conservative tune. I did not want to spend the money on pistons and fuel upgrades, so I'll likely stick with this kit. I love it!

Our most popular LT1 blower is the A&A kit. We have 2014 C7's that have been at 650+whp for over 30k miles with no issues thus far.

ECS kits are fantastic and coupled with headers you're make about 550-600 with stock fuel system. Removing the restrictor plate and adding meth will warrant around 700.
Seems cheaper to do the LT4 blower on a LT1 these days tho. Guys are selling those LT4 blowers cheap.
