Do we need over 1000bhp?!
Not sure the instant low end would compare either...
I have a 2300 on a forged engine (LSA block and ported heads). The blower itself is on the limit in terms of airflow so the 2650 would suit me, even if it meant the same airflow at less effort and lower IATs. Not sure the instant low end would compare either...
I’m going to enquire but I’m pretty sure this unit is bigger in all dimensions and I’d struggle to fit it under the bonnet of my Monaro. Would be great if they built the Heartbeat equivalent instead of the modular design.

Love this thread but to get the best from our cars we need a DSG gearbox to fit the Monaro, that way we could keep up with a M4 otherwise even a 1000hp is no good.I’m going to enquire but I’m pretty sure this unit is bigger in all dimensions and I’d struggle to fit it under the bonnet of my Monaro.

Love your enthusiasm though Wormas you keep me fully engaged with our cars.
Please keep it going maybe we could get 007 back to comment or even Roger?

Fitting a DSG box would totally alter the character of the Monaro (for the worse) or any other true muscle car. Manual all the way! I like the standard box despite it being a tad slow.Love your enthusiasm though Wormas you keep me fully engaged with our cars.

I know an M4 is a technical master piece, but those things drive themselves. No skill at all required to drive them fast.

Must admit I cannot remeber the last time I had trouble keeping up with anything & DSG gearboxes are not for muscle cars.Love your enthusiasm though Wormas you keep me fully engaged with our cars.

I suspect the 2650 maybe too tall to fit under my bonnet but I’ve contacted Magnuson to ask the question.

If you really wanted a DSG experience...may as well just fit an auto, of which there are many options possible, albeit 4 speeds the easiest.
But a car like a Monaro doesnt need a DSG...although it is of course possible to fit one. Whether the cost really makes it worth it or not is another matter.
