That thing looks freaking sweet! Any chance that it would work on a L99?

Absolutely work on the L99

I would love to know more information about this blower then. For instance, if the new design allows better efficiency=more power. I just really love how it looks compared to the original Maggie.

I would like to comment on that AFTER the install and dyno. This is my first personal experience with the Heartbeat.

Some background, I worked at Magunson for about 10 years, one of my projects was the jackshaft system on the first gen 5 Camaro in North America. Fast forward to 8/2011, I started Supercharger Connection, and now Superchargers Online. Most of my personal experience is with the older generation TVS2300 jack shafts, that being said....The ancillary parts, i.e. "box 2" has been improved way beyond what I thought. All harnesses are plug and play, very little to NO cutting, the Heat Exchanger for the intercooler is mounted like factory, the intercooler pump is new and improved, and the hoses are all plug and play pre molded.

In other words, Magnuson took note of what the competitors were doing and IMPROVED on it exponentially.

More Thoughts as we move along in the install.

I'd like to see a few better pictures of the heat exchanger. I need a new one, and I'd like to see the new style before I order an old style one.

BlownChevy · 11-24-2014, 11:47 PM

I'll see what I can do

Thats a wrap, here is the first 2015 Camaro SS with a Magnuson Supercharger Heartbeat system!

Fish-man · 11-25-2014, 07:07 PM

Nice! Waiting to see dyno numbers. ..

Do you know what might be different on an L99 install?

From what I can see it is going to be the same. Anything with the electric power steering is good to go.

2012LS3VERT · 11-26-2014, 10:13 AM

Any chance you can look into getting just a heat exchanger for me?

That is stick looking, is there a difference in performance of the blowers over the older 2300?

robsbandit · 11-26-2014, 05:34 PM

I am in the process of trying to figure out which supercharger to go with for my '14 1LE this winter. I like the Whipple and the SLP. But, I do want to keep my stock hood and insert. I really like that the Magnuson will allow me to that and will give over 500rwhp. It also looks great in your install photos. My question to you is, do the intercoolers work as well as they claim and how much cutting is involved in the install? I use my 1LE for autocross and open trackdays which are about 1/2hr sessions running all out. I don't want heatsoak to be an issue and will probably return it to stock condition when sell it in the future. Thanks.
