Well I've recently been looking into getting a KB 2.2 for my Cobra, along with a BAP and TB (already have other supporting mods), but one of my big questions is reliability.
With the ported blower, I can still go on a highway drive for two hours and be fine, get decent HIGHWAY gas mileage (goes to the shitter in the city, lol), and not a lot of hassles. I don't dog on my car, I drive it very easy for the most part, and will get on it every once in a while. Right now with my Steggy stgIV ported blower I'm running 15lbs of boost and making 491/507. I'm only looking to run 15-17lbs with the KB 2.2. First off, what kind of HP can I expect with the 2.2L at these boost levels with a conservative tune? Second, does my reliability go out the window? Will I be likely to grenade the stock motor, or anything else? (other than the obvious stock half shafts, kill tires, etc.)
