There are numerous worked T's around yet only a handful of worked 8's. Also the sound, (Refer to Corvette C6 video in other post)Done.as a few people allready kow I like to be a bit different when it comes to cars (my van), and although XR8 utes are not rare, a whippled KB charged ute is not as common as spiced Turbos, though they always make me smile when I see one spooling up!Have just looked over my finances for next year, have decided ill be cracking the case and replacing rods and pistons to ensure I will make a safe reliable 400rwkw is achieved. Well I figure.... if you charge it, I as well go a bit further and do it with style!cant wait for February now!!!Cheers for all the posts and help guys, "headsex" ill probably be in toutch early in the year mate.Kevo !!!

Guest Guests Posted 20/12/07 10:51 PM Share Posted 20/12/07 10:51 PM I dont know what this new blowe kit is but stay well away from Yellow Terra/Herrod kit....Go with either the Batterns kit or the Bluepower kit.

Guest Guests Posted 20/12/07 10:59 PM Share Posted 20/12/07 10:59 PM Kenne Bell dont make anything bigger than a 2.8L, there 2 new sizes are 2.6L & 2.8L. Whipple make a 2.3L & a 3.4L though, the 3.4 is just a monster & is basically an all out race blower. Chris only uses the little 2.6L in his BPR kits so there's plenty of room to step up if 6oorwkw isn't enough power for you.Is it a locally sourced head unit ?

Biggest thing is development cost's, with a twin screw blower you need to design and then cast the manfolds as opposed to design a bracket to hold the head unit.
