Just ordered my KB today!!!!

I am tired of playing around. I was going to run nitrous, installed the Zex kit (like Rob02Lightning did) but was not satisfied with the results yesterday at the track. I was never completely happy with the nitrous on my Z28 either, filling bottles, .....get temperature just right......getting a good purge....ect., its just too much hassle to me.

Screw it....(literally)

So I ordered the Kenne Bell today.

Looks like I will be another 03 block and rod tester!!!

I thought about that, but I need to sell the nitrous to help pay for the KB, and I dont have a built block...Yet...

Thanks for the compliment.
It probably isn't a good idea with a stock block.

People keep thinking I'm from KY or something...Sheesh! I changed it.

Here is a video of the truck with camper shell spanking a 2002 NSX on with a 100 shot. Too bad he red lighted.

Just to get back on topic your blower will sound similar to my KB.

Best of Luck Six Speed, KB IS THE WAY TO GO

If I had the money, I'd do it
But for us poor people the Zex works just fine FOR NOW

You say you were not satisfied ?
What type of numbers did you run ?
My 3 worse runs on Juice are still 1/2 sec quicker than no juice.
My best runs are almost 8/10th's quicker.

I hope you didn't listen to everyone
and take all the timing out of it ?
It needs @16 Degrees of timing with the Juice

Best of Luck, the KB is obviously a better way to go
YA I'M JELOUS, hehehehehehe

I know that it was wayyyyyy Hotter than when I ran my 12.96 @ 106, about 20 degrees Hotter, but I still should have gained more than the almost 2-3 tenths that I gained.

But thats in the past.......

Thanks for the congrats......Hopefully I will keep my rods inside the motor!!!
