2009 Dodge RAM mAGNACHARGER. ANYONE?
Anyone pick this up yet?
SInce I now have a lifted truck, --exhaust, air intake and about
to install the SC vortex.. Am I back at square one?

They've got the manual for this on they're site now.

I'd love to have one but can't justify the cost and loss of warranty

IMO, this is the best type of S/C for our trucks.
Produces full boost, subsequently maximum torque from idle, unlike a centri blower that
has to ramp up so it creates all it's power at the top half of the RPM band. Torque is what accelerates the truck from a light.
What you need if you find the power from the Hemi lacking when towing heavy loads.
Should easily make 500/500. More power is just a smaller pulley away.
Consider once my warranty on the motor is up.

I WANT I WANT I WANT!!!!!!! I couldn't find it listed on the site though. Any idea how much? what if we already have the diablo? looks like we would need to have a inlet tube made if we already have a air raid intake

Smaller the pulley, the faster the blower spins, the more boost and power you make.
Our motors should reliably take 6 to 7lbs of boost and that should add an easy 100hp/tq.
If your feeling brave, and like to dance with the 'engine ghods', you could go up to 10 to 12lbs of boost, and would likely take your truck to north of 600/600. There are some concerns at this level, but that's for another discussion.
These blower's can make more power than our stock motor's can reliably take, so how much power these blower makes is redundant.
For example, a good friend of mine has one of these blowers at 16lbs of boost, making well over 700rwhp/tq on a forged motor in his Vette. He's now at 20lbs, but hasn't dyno'ed his car yet.
Here's his last dyno at 16lbs. Now that's a torque curve!

My only concern is whether the MDS may cause a complication.
