You are doing a lot of bashing and nowhere in your post did I see any good evidence or demonstration of any knowledge of either system except what you have seen on the internet and what you saw on youtube (which most of the time I see cars with turbos AND smaller engines like EVOs, Supras, etc. walking the shit out of most highly modified KB cobras lol. But I guess they should throw a KB on their supra because even though they'll make a few hundred less HP they will go faster and be able to merge into traffic better haha).
Also, you don't seem to know very much about a turbo system other than what you have read on the internet, so please keep your useless opinion out of the thread unless you want to state any facts and not what you think the difference is. I'm sure the OP can go search all the forums and come up with exactly the same misguided opinion that you have.
Your story about not being able to merge into traffic with a turbo but being able to with a KB is pretty funny, I lol'd for a good minute about that one. BTW, what kinda shit are you smoking, can I get some? KBs have their place obviously and they can go fast, but you are doing too much bashing on turbos based on complete BS that you are spewing and have no clue about and I don't think someone should t ake your ill-advised advice when making a decision on what to do with their car and money because you're an ignorant fool who is running his mouth.
Random question: To those saying that the turbos only put out good dyno numbers but don't run fast......what is the fastest Kenne Bell powered mustang (no nitrous, etc. just straight engine/supercharger) and what is the fastest turbo mustang, period?
My vote goes with either turbo or centrifugal supercharger. It will be more efficient at lower boost and make more power and leave you with more potential in the future. I'm not biased on what kit as there are several that will work and make great power. But the KB guys seem to only support their evidence because they want to justify why they think they went with the KB and claim it's better just because it's easier to put on lol. Well, if you want to make a true 700 or more hp car, then easy isn't something you should consider unless you like your car not running more often than not.
Also, if it wasn't for some of the poster's complete lack of knowledge on anything boost related, then I would've thought they were KB salesmen in this thread
Here are some races I filmed years ago with SRVidz.
HP Twin T57 Car on 15 PSI AND PUMP GAS, full weight vs 03 Cobra w/ KB 2.2@18 PSI, 60 Shot, 4R70W Trans, race gas and full weight YouTube - TT Cobra vs. KB N20 Cobra
HP Twin T57 car again on 15 psi and pump gas, full weight vs broke7 (who will outdrive almost everybody on this thread lol) with the KB 2.4 @ 19 psi on a 60-70ish dry shot (he did say the car felt faster in cooler weather on more boost than it did in the warmer weather on lower boost and the small shot) YouTube - Twin-T57-03-Cobra-vs-KB-24-N20-03-Cobra
Note how neither twin screw and nitrous with all that awesome instant power came out ahead of the turbo car on the hit (except for the second race with broke7 and the tt car) brake boosting does wonders for a turbo car when done right
That same TT Cobra made 804 rwhp on 22.5 psi on race gas, stock longblock
I have ridden in pullied cars, pullied cars with nitrous, Ported Eaton's, Ported Eaton's with nawz, KB 2.2's, KB 2.2's with nitrous, KB 2.4's, KB 2.4's with nitrous, Whipple 2.3s, Hellion T76 and that Twin T57 car pulled harder than all of them, especially on 22.5 psi. He never got it to run anything good at the track at all though, not enough practice/tire/2 step.
I NEVER one time said that a TS was faster than a turbo car. I even said that in the overall scheme of things, a turbo car has more potential and will always win the dyno numbers game. It is a known fact that turbo cars and centrifugal cars do not have the low end torque of a TS. No one can deny that. Like I said before, each method has it's advantages and ends up as a matter of personal preference.
