I fail to understand why all posts like that one are not deleted,

shouldn't have to "warn" anyone anymore ... The rules must
be applied without apparent bias.

You mean posts like the one you just made?
I guess that means my post also...

Wow! I just found out that I have a Ghetto blower. Perfect!! Speaking of customer service, How well was the person taken care of when his Works went bad? We all know who I am talking about. Didn't he fix it out of his own pocket? Didn't he replace it with a K/B? Put what ever blower on your truck that makes you happy, because they all do about the same thing anyway. Skip

Dam e-mail must be broken or something ???
look Rob, i've been quiet up until now, but you persist in this. I volunteered way back on page 5 of this post to test both blowers for JL and Sal or REM. Stop trying to jack my scam ok.

j/k

maybe together we could convince them to send each of us one of the blowers and then after install and unbiased testing, we could swap and retest the other blowers. this would give twice the amount of results and thus more accurate info.

sound like a plan?

later,
chris

You know, I think Super Ford and Blown 318 may be on to something here. I live minutes from Sal, and you guys are in Richmond and IN. Sal can hook me up, Jim and Johnny can hook you guys up, and then we can all do the testing for our team.
Schitt, just for the good of the team, I'd even let him provide me with all his hi-performance products to go along with the New Supercharger. Chips, Dyno Tunes, Tranny Mods, Electric Fan, Cobra Pump, guages, a little bling bling here and there. You name it, and I'll except it "FOR THE GOOD OF THE TEAM OF COURSE"
They can even sponser us and provide the transportation to all the meets, nothing crazy maybe just a nice 45 footer.

There is no limit to what I'll take for free,
FOR THE GOOD OF THE TEAM OF COURSE



Dam E-mail is still broken or something ???

Say, I don't have time to read the whole post, so I dont know if it was mentioned. If it was tell me to go to my corner.

Is it in PSP's future production plans to make an intake that will fit on the 03 Cobra?

I couldn't help but notice, as soon as we started talking about free stuff, The Tuners all disappeared,
WHASSUP WIT TAT ???
Come on guys, this would be great for the Community, think of all the sacrifices we would be making. Worse gas milage, we'd have to change the breaks and tires more often, we'd never see the back of another car again and might forget what one looks like. We'd even have to put up with being the first person to get everywhere, and the first to get home. Sometimes it's lonely at the top, but yet we are still willing to make these compromises for the good of the Lightning Community, and oviously not for our personal gains.

Welp, considering the blower was OPENED and something was hacksawed from it, yeah, i would imagine that would void the warranty bud.

How about getting you F**kin facts straight bud.

I didn't want to rehash this, but here goes.

The blower failure had nothing to do with JDM, or Works it was just a defective blower from Magnuson. Look at SVT KY he has a stock blower that is being replaced. When you have a mass produced product, once in a great while you will get a defective unit.

The blower was Never Opened The intake was taken off to trim a vacuum line to make it fit better. The blower was never touched. They took off the intake to make sure no metal shavings got into the blower. Then they cleaned the intake to make sue it was perfectly clean. I was right there and saw the whole install.

The blower itself wasn't opened up untill it got back to California.

Also even if Shawn did open it up, which he didn't I wouldn't be worried. He took the front cover off my stock blower to replace the upper pulley. The stock blower now has 40,000 miles on it and is running perfect. JDM has taken over 100 blowers apart to relace the upper pulley, and I have never heard of one of those blowers having any problems.

Ask all the L guys on this board who have had JDM remove the front of the blower, if anyone has had any problems. I don't think you will get anyone to reply with any problems.

"I'm sure there will be KB advocates that will come back with all sorts of debatable replies to this, but the simple truth is everything I wrote is FACT. You can search and look it all up if you like. You don't have to like it, you can go cry in the corner if you want, you can not believe it, I don't really care. It's fact for those who wanted to know, do with it what you like."

Sal I asked the ? where &when have you or anybody else Tested the *NEW* KB against the works?
You say that you just give (Facts) where is the test data? I have never claimed to test the *NEW* KB against the works to give ANY Facts about Data..Trust me there will be plenty of data with the KB and Works and the New KenneBell BigMouth intake against the works intake with that 180* turn to make it fit to the rear of the works...As far as your other statements you say you have facts? we'll i'm sure you'll have some explaining to do about that..
On another note ive been hearing about tim's truck too...Lets see.. 4 link suspension,twin turbo's.tubbed ect! WOW! All that just for me ....LOL! why don't you just send John Force too while your at it....What i don't seem to understand tim is that your so sure the works will smoke the KB..why aren't you putting it on your truck?(instead of turbo's) Just like a few have said Apples to Apples That would be interesting! I also hear how your comming to WFC challenge to smoke JL...We'll i guess we'll have to see won't we? i'm sure you'll be behind the wheel just like i'll be behind the wheel of my truck right? i'll say it again to the lightning owners. please buy which ever SC you feel more confident in. which ever 1 it is...it dosn't matter to me its your truck enjoy it.. JL
