Also, what are the chances we could see the dyno sheets for your set up? What truck was used for the readings? I'm in the market to purchase and have a supercharger installed in the next few weeks and would like to see what Magna Charger has to offer.
05RoushMarkLT, i am in the same situation, i am just about to install a new Whipple S/C on the next 10 days but he said 400/440rwhp with ONLYYYY 7psi !!!
Those numbers are very impressive !!!
Whipple states lower numbers hp 394/432rwhp and still needs 8psi instead of 7.

Rafa, that's why I am so interested in this system. Since both of us are about to drop 5 grand or more on a system, we might as well get the best. I'll be honost too, I am a bit skeptical on the numbers too, which is why I'd like to see a dyno sheet and find out what F150 set up the dyno runs were done on. Was it a single cab 2wd?

FORDTRK, I'll be doing some shows this year and would like to talk to them about working with me on the install. I'd like to know what shop they worked with in Vegas. I'm living here now, and would love to see their set up either here, or in LA. Is this the F-Force kit that has been listed on this site?

Thanks for your info. Any idea on prices or availability at this time? Also, do you have a contact name and number I can call this coming week? If you'd like to e-mail me, don't use the one this site gives you, use arcticbowman@hotmail.com

Thanks!

If you are looking at the PowerWorks site it is the F-Force Kit. I will let my buddy know you are interested and forward your e-mail to him. You can always give me a call if you are ever in Los Angeles.....The truck will be here for you to drive if you are interested.

Hell of a nice gesture. I'm not sure if I'll make it over to LA, but we will be heading down to San Diego during the third week of March. I plan to do the state to state cruise and sport truck nationals at Lake Havasu on the 17-19th, so I'd like to have the charger done by then.

Guys dyno numbers are just that.. just #'s. We need a graph to tell where the hp/torque is in the curve. dyno #'s can be manipulated any way you like. There are little tricks to get higher numbers. Was this SAE/STD uncorrected???? I'm not bashing but i don't think 6hp is enough to get your panties in a wad. The Whipple is a twin screw, is this? 1/4 times will tell you more than peak numbers!!

I agree, I will see what I can do to get the dyno graph up.

I like the looks of it. It draws in through the front and doesnt have that nasty bend in the back like the whipple does. That could account for some of the difference in output.

Less of a pumping loss is what I have been told.

FORDTRK, the state to state cruise information is in Sport Truck magazine. I saw an issue with the cruise in it a couple years back, and tried to make last years with my sport trac, but didn't get to go. I saw the dates for this years cruise in the latest edition of Sport Truck. There is a contact in there. I don't have any of that information with me however. The cruise is on Friday the 17th of March, followed by a show at Lake Havasu on the 18th and 19th. If you check out the back pages of Sport Truck or Truckin' mag's, you should find the information on both events.
