Default Holy Crap. Kennebell released...$$$$

I was kind of excited on when Kennebell would make the kit available for the Hemi. Available as of 6/15/09 However, I don't see a listing for the Ram? Doesn't matter. They want $6999 for it
http://www.kennebell.net/supercharge...challenger.htm
They have a 8psi pulley for stock engines that makes some beefy instant neck snappy power. I did read that they said 700hp is max for a stock block. Which is good because that means you can run an 8psi set-up no prob as i thought that was pushing it.

I'd a loved to see their product cost as little as the one i was debating over for my Mustang. Doesn't look like i'll be buying anything KB in the near future unless they have one hell of a promotion.

That is awesome (Except the price) and boost will really wake an engine up.

I drove an 03 cobra with a KB set-up that had identical dyno numbers as my Vortech set-up on my 97. The Twin screw was amazing. Huge difference. Neck snapping compared to increasing seat pressure from the centrifugal boost lag. Centris get full power at max engine rpm while Twinscrews get 3/4 power at 1800rpm and full power at 2300rpms!!!!!(roughly....varies on vehicle)

Yes Sir, and it is very ghetto, lol even in VA Beach.

I like the twin screw set ups. The only real advantage the centrifugal has is the ability to cool the boost. Nothing beats the sound of the twin screw blowers.

AF_HEMI, Don't hate

The new Kennebell are "whisper quiet", so you will not hear the usually whine of the other Twin screws.

Now that is awesome. A true sleeper, hopefully someone will get one and post up some vids. Plus the potential of 23lbs of boost, "Holy Crap" is right.

Is it wrong that just the thought of getting something like this basically makes me drool? It is a shame that they are just so damn expensive.
