blownchevy Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 MagnaCharger hands down IMO! But I am sold already! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcairns Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 If you want a turn-key system, the Radix is the way to go. If you enjoy doing the tuning, then you might consider the procharger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viperkiller97 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Looks wise the Vortech ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plwtwo Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 I suppose a Kenne Bell is out of the question? No really, I'm serious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilveradoSS04 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 From what i've heard, they're both good kits, and both benefit from custom tuning. If you want the power to arrive low, go with the radix. The vortech will start kicking in later, but from what I've see, vortech kits seem to make more power easier. Just my opinion. Either way, make sure you get somthing with an intercooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 for a simple bolt on kit if you're not into tuning and making it work, go radix. the radix is one hell of a kit and i was solid at recomending it initially, but they all seem to have the same knock signal problem which i'm wondering if it is a frequency from the blower causing it. either way, for a bolt on kit it's radix hands down. for going all out, i'd say procharger or vortech. vortech would be my pick over procharger though since the procharger takes considerably more work to hook up and get tuned in as well as having to set up all your own ducting including the intercooler.

adams2003 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 I have nothing but great things to say about the Vortech I have. It kicks ass The magna seems to be working well for others, but I would never trade in my Vortech for another system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawk Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Honestly, if the dang companies would make intercoolers for them, my choices would be wipple or KB. Right now you have to speak French to get any type of customer service from KB….$.02… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbyrne Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 Magnuson or Vortech... you won't go wrong either way and both come with everything you need for the install. The Magnuson has been very popular and makes good power throughout the RPM range. Vortech also makes a very good product. Their kits have been extremely popular with the other vehicles that we deal with. Their new system with the Aftercooler can hang with the best of them! The Radix will make more power in the lower RPM range but as I said, you won't go wrong either way. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN C5 Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I'd go with a Vortech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adams2003 Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I'd go with a Vortech I can break all four loose with the vortech, so why would I need more low end power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 with a stock converter or for towing, the radix may be favored, but for racing, etc the low end power isn't as noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
