Austin at Vivid Racing did a great job walking me through my options and absolutely pointed me in the right direction. It’s hard to know what direction to go because of all the options, but he really helped me pick the right one. I absolutely love the sound!! Very unique.”

Check out the photo and videos below featuring the impressive look and sound emitted from the Armytrix exhaust on Rustin’s Porsche. “It sounds great in the video but even better in person,” he says. “The beginning of the video starts off with the valves closed and then you can really hear the difference when I open them up.

Magnuson Presents the Toyota Tundra TVS1900 Supercharger System

Magnuson is proud to announce the release of their Toyota Tundra Supercharger System, which is available for the 2007-2015 Toyota Tundra 5.7L V8 truck. The OEM look of the integral supercharger system on this platform allows for a single, large charge air cooler, a larger plenum and tapered runners – these are just a few of the advancements. At around 7 psi, the Tundra Supercharger System outputs a whooping 550hp and 550lb-ft of torque at the crank, all with CARB certification pending.

At the heart of the Magnuson Supercharger System is Eaton’s latest Twin Vortices Series (TVS) supercharger unit, the TVS1900. The system is a positive displacement, roots style pump, utilizing Eaton’s lightweight, four-lobe 160 degree twisted rotors. It is cast and assembled as a single, OEM-style-manifold and rotating group housing. As a plus, the unit is quiet, compact, attractive, easy to install, and requires little to no extra maintenance once it is on. Check below for some photos, and you can browse through our entire selection of Magnuson Supercharger Systems here.

Fitment: 

• 2007-2015 Toyota Tundra 5.7L V8


• 2007-2015 Toyota Tundra Flex Fuel 5.7L V8 (coming soon)


• 2016+ Toyota Tundra 5.7L V8 (coming soon)


• 2016+ Toyota Tundra Flex Fuel 5.7L V8 (coming soon)


• Also available in as a “Tuner Kit” without calibration for other 5.7L V8 platforms

Key Features:

• 550hp & 550lbs-ft at the crank in standard kit form on an unmodified truck.


• Calibration included for standard kit (via-OBDII flash device included).


• Includes Magnuson’s 3yr/36,000ml warranty.


• CARB certification pending.


• MSRP of US$7,595 including calibration.


• Installs can usually be completed within one day.


• Also available as a “Tuner kit”, please enquirer within.

Additional Notes from Manufacturer: 

Since the supercharger does not compress air as it moves through the rotors, it’s extremely efficient during light throttle and cruising situations. Unlike screw-type positive displacement superchargers that are always compressing, the TVS unit can internally bypass unwanted air, resulting in negligible parasitic loss during cruising and therefore far greater fuel economy.

The single cast unit and appropriately sized rotating group eliminates potential leak points and allows for a slim, compact design without sacrificing key airflow design characteristics. The unit features a high velocity flow path through the supercharger rotors and an unrestricted discharge port into the appropriately sized plenum. The large plenum equalizes flow across all ports as air feeds evenly through the low-pressure-drop, dual internal air-to-water charge air coolers. Finally, the ports are separated into individual runners, offering greater operation by eliminating cross-fire.

AEM Announces Release of Expanded Line of X-Series Digital Gauges

AEM’s performance electronics are engineered to outperform the competition. This company designs, manufactures and assembles engine management systems, wideband air/fuel systems, data loggers, water/methanol injection systems, performance gauges, boost controllers, ignition and fuel delivery components and adjustable cam gears. AEM recently released an expanded lineup of their X-Series Digital Gauges that are smarter, sexier and slimmer, and feature a host of refinements.

AEM’s new X-Series Digital Gauges combine incredible looks, increased readability and a multitude of new, easy-to-use features! The X-Series Digital Display Gauges are available for Boost, EGT, Fuel/Oil Pressure, Oil/Water/Trans Temperature and Volts. These new gauges complement the X-Series Digital Wideband AFR gauge, which was released in the winter, and is the fastest responding wideband in independent testing.

Visual improvements include a bright three- or four-digit LED display that is 87% larger than AEM’s original digital gauges. It also provides a much better readability. A sweeping green LED “needle” lines the edge of the gauge face for quick reference. A 33% overall increase in the gauge face display makes it easier to see displayed values at just a glance. X-Series Gauges come with a black bezel and faceplate. Optional silver bezel/white faceplate accessory kits are available for each gauge and sold separately.

Despite the larger display, X-Series Gauges are contained in a standard 2-1/16th-inch (52mm) diameter housing for mounting in a standard gauge pod. Thanks to an advanced single board design, X-Series Gauges have an incredibly slim overall depth of under 0.825”, with a cup depth of only 0.200.” This shallow cup depth allows X-Series Digital Gauges to be mounted practically anywhere.

X-Series Digital Gauges include new technological features that make them easier to use. Two buttons on the faceplate deliver programmability for peak/recall, standard or metric display, and user-selectable min/max threshold warnings. The faceplates are reversible for standard or metric. The gauges are AEMnet CAN-bus enabled, so they can be daisy chained together for use with the Infinity ECU, Series 2 EMS, AQ-1 Data Logger, or 3rd party EMS or logger that accepts AEMnet. 0-5V analog outputs are also included for inputting into data loggers and engine management systems.

Coming in Summer 2016!

AEM will be expanding its X-Series line with an AEMnet X-Series Digital Gauge that reads and displays engine and vehicle parameters transmitted through the AEMnet CAN Bus stream, an OBDII X-Series Digital Gauge that reads and displays OBDII parameters and clears diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), and a GPS-based X-Series Speedometer in summer 2016. Detailed information on these gauges will be available soon.

Akrapovic Exhaust Systems for the Chevrolet Corvette C6 and C7

The Akrapovic company was founded in Slovenia a quarter century ago by former motorcycle racer Igor Akrapovic. Since then, the brand has grown to international prominence through its successful support of leading motorsport teams. One hundred world champions in both two- and four-wheel motorsports have achieved success using Akrapovic’s performance systems. Currently in stock are the Akrapovic exhaust systems for the Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06/ZR1 and C7 Stingray/Z06 models.

Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06/ZR1

The stainless-steel slip-on line systems for the Chevrolet C6 replace the stock exhaust from the center link pipes, back. The weight difference between the Akrapovic slip-on mufflers and the stock system is approximately 9lbs. Akrapovic’s slip-on line systems increase the power and torque of the Corvette V8 engine, while improving throttle response, all achieved without removing the catalytic converters. Finally, the most dramatic improvement is in the sound: the slip-on line exhaust gives the C6 a much deeper and throatier growl. The Akrapovic Sound Kit is also available as an option; it allows for full control of the dual-mode valves. Be sure to complete the look with a set of exquisite 115mm or larger 125mm tailpipes in either titanium or carbon fiber.

Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray/Z06

The Akrapovic evolution line system for the Chevrolet Corvette C7 takes exhaust tuning to the next level. Featuring mufflers and link-pipes made from high-grade titanium to dramatically reduce the overall weight, the system provides more power, lowers back pressure and increases torque. With four valves, the first pair operates in four-cylinder mode and the second set comes into action following the driver’s specifications. With an electronic device developed by Akrapovic engineers for the five standard GM modes—Weather, Eco, Tour, Sport and Track, the system is perfectly matched to operate with the car’s drive mode selector. This produces an even greater range of options for the driver to fully experience the amazing sound of the car.

The evolution line system, with a new X-pipe, provides even greater performance compared to the slip-on line system and adds a pure race-note soundtrack for this stunning engine with the enhanced sound characteristics of the V8 configuration without any drone – just pure enjoyment! Four large-diameter carbon fiber tail pipes with titanium inners complete the appearance of the evolution line perfectly, making it stand out as something special.
