i read somewhere were someone gained about 14 over their eaton... so does that mean about 40hp over stock eaton??

 

Look around and check; there will probably be some used ones for you to try. Lotta people switching from MP to KB's

 

the power lands somewhere between the ported eaton and the kb. the power is great and my et's are better

 

I switched from a 2 pound lower stock eaton, to the MP with a four pound lower. Went from 435/522 to 501/591.

thats what i wanted to hear.... so other than the pulley and the MP... did you do anything else??

what are all your mods

 

We ran out of injectors and had to go with the 50s. The larger injectors actually made less power.
Dropped the Flip Chip and went with the SCT 9100.





Still running the stock long block...

Nice STD numbers

 

A little bias are we?

 

Not really there are more going from magnums to kbs than you think....I only had mine 2 weeks

 

Bias maybe.....

Maybe speaking the truth to help fellow L members from making the same mistake.....

You decide

 

They were dynoed before and after STD so the gains are relevant, pointing out they are STD numbers isnt.

Pointing out they are STD is to make sure the rest of the community realizes how the #'s will compare to there SAE numbers which will be lower

 

casey i feel your pain, i also bought the magnum with visions of 500 hp. i can only say good things about the magnum after actual racing with all the other blowers.

but the initial wtf feeling was painful when i did'nt have 500


put all the blowers together at the track and the magnum sits high and proud. i can vouch for that

 

I understand that when a power goal isnt met it is quite upsetting. Dealing with these vehicles on a daily basis you will see that so often. However there are trucks out there making that kind of power so it can be done. There are too many variables to even list that can be different about 2 trucks that have the same blower. Its all the matter of getting what you need besides the supercharger to get there. We had 3 Magnum trucks this Friday at JDM day that all ran 11's all day(11.90s-11.80s) stock block. There is still power to be unlocked in these trucks too. When my truck is ready for it there will be a Magnum sitting on top.
