magnuson is just a dealer for eaton, they build blower kits using the eaton supercharger. we do have a 5th gen blower, the 4th gen one shown in those pics is just a generic case, out blower case is built aplication specific.
pretty much id say thats the same blower we have.

I'm lost with what people are looking at. It clearly says adding the supercharger will give you 40%... there is nothing at all about changing your current one. So yeah, you take a look at an ecotec dealer find the lsj and get 100% gain if we are using that logic.

another thing i want to point out is that u guys are getting so tied up in it being a 4th gen and ours being a 5th gen u need to remember that this is there supercharger...not gm's maybe its there 4th gen...doesnt mean its not compatable with ours since its a 5th gen..

gm doesn't have any superchargers... they use eatons. going to the 4th gen is going backwards. trust us when we tell you its not worth it

what do you mean by that? just because a few people told you it's not worth it, gave their reasoning which makes total sense doesn't mean you should try.
you're looking at a generic kit, not a cobalt specific kit. which means the gains posted are generic. if you had a turbocharged car, would you gain anything by putting on a smaller, less efficient turbo? no, you would lose power. same concept here.
