New 2.6 Cobra Specific Kenne Bell VS. w140ax Whipple

Any thoughts on the latest-and-greatest 03/04 Cobra offerings?

New 2.6 Cobra-Specific Kenne Bell VS. w140ax Whipple?

Boils down to if you like more Eaton-like blower whine (Kenne Bell) vs not (Whipple)?????

 

[GodStang]

Both great blowers. You will get around the same power from each. Basically boils down to which you like the looks of better and which you can get at a better price.

What about sound (Eaton like whine vs. not)?

If you want that sound you may as well just port the Easton and spray it.
Both the Whipple and Kenne Bell twinscrew blowers sound totally different.

yea and doesnt the kenne bell actually have lower IATS?

 

[65mph_Roll]

Actually I want as little blower whine as possible - Whipple would be the way to go vs. KB, right?

Yeah, but the new KB's don't sound as high pitched as the older KB's with the Autorotor designs.

Myth, both will yield very similar IAT2 temps.

Both great blowers and likely both capable of meeting most peoples' goals. And yes, the new KB's don't scream like the old ones did.

I like the sound of a ported eaton or keene bell over a whipple! persnally I would go kb

I have the newest GenII Whipple and it's pretty loud.

I like Whipple versus Kenne Bell, but I've got a pretty biased opinion. LOL

Anyone else making 610 RWHP/565 RWTQ on pump gas with a 2.6H Kenne Bell?

 

[T-Pain808]

Personally I would take either one, LOL. But KB is more expensive. And anyone that says the don't like the whine is crazy. What are you trying to do build a sleeper.

If you count pump + a lil Torco, then yes and a bit moreepper:. The Torco probably wasn't needed, but was in the tank for piece of mind.

Yes.......as much as a Cobra can be a sleeper.

My old style Whipple makes plenty of noise, but if it was dead silent and all you heard was exhaust, I wouldn't mind that either.

 

[65mph_Roll]

Sleeper - yea. I had an old 5.0 with a centrifigual blower befor the Cobra and kept the stock wheels and ride height - looked stock. Loved to kill the 400HP Vipers.
