Wow 🤩 just got this in, was plated by another plater. This is crazy….Yikes ! I don’t know the plater if the customer wants to chime in I’m sure he will.

Chamfering warning ⚠️

If you have a full gold model of any type or factory chamfered it’s no longer plateable by me.

The PVD top layer is broken obviously when the material is removed to soften it, so now that area can no longer be etched to hard bond new gold.

Magnuson 2650 supercharger for my Eray 😎. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ok I live in Cali and magnuson is close by. They set me up with a local shop they work with to do the install. I called my Chevy dealer to ask them if it will void my warranty. He said yes for any powertrain related issues, but everything else will still be under warranty, except if the supercharger is in the way of the warranty repair (which would be rare if that happens) ive bought 3 C8’s from this dealer and always do my services there.

Magnuson has a 3yr/36k mile warranty for the powertrain for an additional $700. The total is $24,350 with tax. And this is 50 state carb legal for CA.

850hp and 800 TQ. Combined with front electric motor. Does anyone have experience with this set up? If so have I missed anything here ? I feel like if you pull a ZR1X up next to the Eray. The only difference is the 5.5 Flat plain TT v8 and beefed up DCT, rest of the car is identical but a zr1x is $200k more at least at the current prices. Doesn’t it seem like SC’ing the Eray is the way to go ? They also said not clutch slipping issues and they supply the Tune for the installer after the ecu gets get from HP tunes and magnuson says they have the Eray tune dialed for this and it’s “Crazy”.

Please if anyone has first hand experience and has any insight good or bad would love to hear from you.

Thanks !

Just ordered Corsa sport cats for my Eray, already running a dry air filter and E85.

This is my 2nd Eray and I’ve done every single bolt on and tune there is on my first one and now this one I have learned where to put the $ for actual gains in performance on the street not a single dyno run or 3 lol… So due to the fact the manufacturers hands are tied on what they have to do for the catalytic converter this is the last mod that will actually make gains. (Obviously heads and cam would be different, but I’m talking stock long block)

So let’s see should be 10-15 hp and .1 tenth really want to get in the 1.9 second range 0-60 on the street… Currently 2.0 now before cats. The extra volume paired with the NPP exhaust is welcome too 😁 I should note my front electric HP output I hitting 185hp so not sure how that’s happening I just noticed that.
