so im lookin to buy a used kb 1.5 for my car. I looked for a parts list on kb's website but couldnt find anything. Im basically just asking what all comes with the kb kit besides fuel system?? I just dont want to buy a used kit that is missing some parts that are hard to find or really expensive to buy seperate or somethin.

Couple more questions:

What water/meth kit do you guys reccomend for the 1.5 @ 9lbs
Can anyone link me the writeup for relocating the iat i cant seem to find it
Is there anything particular you guys recommend i do or buy with the kit?

If anyone on here is wanting to sell there 1.5 i would definatley be interested in buying it. Thanks for the help guys!

I would look at the instruction manual to see what you need exactly before buying. The most important parts are the open house manifold, idler pulley, throttle cable, throttle cable bracket, miscs bolts and the s/c itself. The bap and fan switch are optional. I would go with a hi volume in tank fuel pump over the bap and 42# injectors over the fmu. I was going to sell my 1.5 kb but change my mine after purchasing a 98 cobra with a procharger...I like the instant boost on the kb. Here's a link on how to relocate the iat courtesy of MWOLSON.

^well damn...still though i can piece together a used vortech kit for that or less...i though a kb was gonna be cheaper than a non intercooled vortech but maybe not.
