OP do your research, check out both of our websites, get a HP/TQ range you want to be in and I'm sure you will be happy with the decision you make. PM me if you have any questions about our product and I will be happy to help.

Maximum power in what sense? You're already running 10.75 in the 1/4 in a stick car.. How much more do you want out of it?

i have heard a few people talk about the IAT's those guys may or may not come in here and say it. i do have 100 logs of my car showing the iat's at stop light to stop light. i just logged the car sitting at the gas pump for 3-5 min. 91-92* the iat's were 90* when i pulled up when i sat there for that time it went about 100*. under WOT they drop not climb.( i'm in new orleans so i know that your not going to find more humidity then we have.)

Matt@KB · 06-10-2011, 12:20 PM

Was this with the IAT in the intake tube or the discharge manifold?

Much much more!!!

You can check out my sig to which one I went with. I'm glad I did! Probably the best looking blower out there, and it seems to make power with ease. Waiting until next summer to go all out with the car, so we will she what she puts out later on!

Matt@KB · 06-10-2011, 12:48 PM

what was the ambient temp? How much boost are you running? Sorry for the questions not trying to jack the thread.

Don't suppose you know anyone that wants an OD Cog would you? I have one that I can't use.

I was wondering the same as the others.. the TVS isn't even topped out, so I was curious where the OP was looking to stop at considering the car is running 10.75 on a stick w/ mid 600s..

Sorry, idk of anyone looking for an OD cog drive. Not to many guys looking for 12+ psi. List it. It will sell in time. There is an ass for every seat!

Yeah, tried that and it's been listed a while.... have had a couple bites, but never any follow through.

I'm just irritated why I even have the damn thing -- but, I'm not going to further thread jack.

I'm new to the forum, but not the game.
As crazy as it sounds, hit up a Mustang forum. The Terminator/GT500 guys are modding freaks, and have a few more years with both blowers.
The KB are certainly the cleanest looking, and make power, that doesn't seem to be an issue. Only thing I have heard is that the KB service post-sales can be hit and miss. The fact that there is a KB presence on these boards tells me it has changed, or was somewhat isolated to the few I have talked to that mentioned it.
I have to agree that winding up the TVS first would be my recommendation also. If you want another 200whp, then ok, it ain't going to happen. That said, another 3-4 lbs of boost could put a smile on your face until you can decide on the replacement.
