Corvette Supercharger HeartBeat Kit – Magnuson : 2008-2012 C6 6.2L LS3
The most powerful under-hood Corvette Supercharger on the market!
Magnuson is proud to announce our brand new under the hood HeartBeat supercharger system for the Chevrolet Corvette C6. We ran back-to-back tests with our original TVS 2300 modular supercharger, and the competition’s TVS 2300 under-hood supercharger. With the provided tune and pulleys, Heartbeat made 25 more horsepower at the wheels than our modular kit, and a whopping 46 more horsepower at the wheels than the competition’s under-hood system. Tested by two of the most respected engine builders in the industry, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering and Duttweiler Performance, Heartbeat made over 900 HP at a mere 10-11 psi, a credit to it’s unsurpassed airflow and inlet design.
Run cooler with the most advanced intercooler system available
Heat soak can be a problem in under-hood supercharger systems, robbing more than half the power gain in the summer heat or after a few drag-strip runs. Heartbeat features integrated intercoolers derived from the same technology used in Formula 1 and NASCAR heat exchangers. Unlike other under-hood supercharger systems, customers report low IATs and consistent performance all day long.
Magnuson Products supercharger kits are complete with all the components necessary for installation, and Heartbeat fits under the factory hood. Included in the kit is our brand new “HeartBeat” cast aluminum intake manifold, factory ‘push-lock’ connectors are utilized in the fuel system for installation ease, Twin dual-pass charge-air-coolers use Formula-1 racing thermal-control technology, coolant circulation pump, heat exchanger and all necessary hardware to make a complete installation package.
