I actually didn't start the thread I chimed in after someone else had pointed it out and other shops also chimed in reporting the Same Results we see almost to the letter. I first chimed it at Post 34 Quote:
I compared 3 KB equipped cars and 3 Whipple cars and the Numbers Keep repeating, so I don't know What else to say. I am in no way trying to hurt anyone as I have said time and time again. I have said everything I have to say all you need to do is go back and re read my posts. Peace, Ted.

Just to fan the flame a bit more, Any manufactures turbo, single or twin kit, would have been in the 630 to 670+ range with 9psi. I won't labor the issue but all this talk over IAT and discharge air temps - Hood open v. Hood closed and so many people are concerned about this and that, bottom mount twins would kill these numbers.
If it is just a PD blower war and who does best then I get it but the first post talked about looking for lower discharge temps and what is the best way to get there and make power without dragging the motor down etc... I agree the test seems very well thought out..... |

well at least y'all entertain the idea of PD blowers. over on my car's huge forum, when we've had any questions/debates over twin screws & roots, it's instantly trolled by all the centrifugal-loving lemmings

My first post on the Camaro forum but I have been closely following the IAT discussion for months now. Big thanks to Adam at ST Motorsports for all the testing! As an old drag racer from the 70's and 80's I know all about testing and how much work it really is! Thank for enlightening all of us because you really helped me to finally make my decision for a KB 2.8. No 2.3 was ever considered. My reasoning for what its worth, if Im shelling out $35. per horsepower for a kit, why give up 25-50hp or $825-$1750? KB doesnt need a whole new inlet and custom tune so I save that cost of both or headers to match the KB. KB overall IAT's are actually lower when considering cooler KB inlet air like you said, "Its proven the CAI is worth upwards of 30-50 rwhp depending on combo, and thats a huge gap to close HP wise and $ wise. Lets not forget though, the Kenne Bell system comes with a HUGE 4.5 CAI in the kit."
so thanks again STM for your very comprehensive testing! "Closing the hood on the Whipple dropped a 55HP (564- 509)all because of temp increase thats HUGE . Boost dropped .8 psi-1.0 psi. No brainer, Whipple hole cut in restrictive stock air box does improve air flow 1203 vs 1004 CFM but the hot under-hood air killed HP and boost. Also heats intercooler water,needs more octane, richens AFR, higher exhaust and engine coolant temps alone are not the only factor in determining HP." I like the KB website info and their kits. No drivability IAT issues and BIG Power compaired to Mag and E kits. As far as asethetics, the KB's billet design looks so much better and, it looks like a real supercharger IMO. -Al |

pictures and dyno sheet
Here are some pictures I wasnt able to post yesterday. These are the 2 kits on the same car. I have the pictures showing the sensors used to find under hood temps, as well as temps in the lower front bumper area. Another is the dyno run hood up vs hood closed. A picture of the cut out air box (yikes!!!). Cant believe I did this , ruined a good stock air box.
Also there is a pic of the blowers side by side ...hmmm look at the inlets...1 90* turn each .. Dont see any gains here. Another thing no -one has talked about. The air filter used in the Kenne Bell kit also far superior in flow compared to the filters offered in the others kits stock/aftermarket. I have some info on the CAI and filter stuff at the shop.Ill post on the Monday. Thanks Adam |
