I would buy anywhere else but KB. At least with JMS and MPH you'll get some customer service to go along with it. You'll get next to none when you buy direct from Kenne Bell. The price is the same regardless. Not to mention I'd trust an MPH or JMS dyno tune over Kenne Bells blanket chip tune any day of the week.
425hp....at the flywheel maybe? If you're talking rear wheels (which I assume you are considering the stats quoted in the rest of your statement) I wouldn't worry about it being anywhere close to that. Although they make a nice kit and really streetable power, never buy into the inflated claims of Kenne Bell's advertised power levels. I've almost never seen anyone crack 400rwhp with the 9psi pulley on pump gas with either the 1.7 or 2.1L kit. 375-390rwhp with his car is probably closer to the mark and that’s taking into account his modest exhaust work.....and auto’s generally, make even less than that!
With only weld in mufflers and my 2.1L at 9psi I put down 366/384 through my auto on the KB tune.

install wasnt too bad. just take your time and its pretty easy. this was my second blower install. the first was a procharger on my brothers 07 which had far less stuff to do than the KB lol.
took about 14hours i would say to get it on mainly cause my dad kept putting stuff on wrong and i was telling him while he was in the process of installing it thats not right and he didnt. lol o well i could only really do small stuff cause i cant really stand up to hold anything heavy.
but just take your time and its pretty easy. we also had the car out at a hobby shop on quantico and put the car on a lift and got to use all there tools and that helped out a good bit.
Sweet dude, how did you manage to score the hobby shop?...wouldn't they just charge you to do it themselves....thanx for this info though...very informative....as well as darkside :SNSign:
Yes you did. Do you want a cookie?Isn't that pretty much exactly what I said?

Thats what I was thinking
You would think he just said the correct answer in response to some impossibly hard question
well its all finished now. thing is sweet. I am using the KB chip for now until i switch over to the all the sct stuff and get a custom tune then im getting the pro racer stuff too so i can do my own tunes after i get one custom tune.
man that whine is the best. I am in love.

I took it as though he may have been posting his results in contradiction to my statement, that's why I reafirmed it afterwards.
I try not to fock with him too much as one day I came back and had a pink tu-tu wearing ballerina as an Avatar and my signature was stuck on something like "Im Gearbangers biotch" or something like thatI just couldnt help but jump on the wagon Was quite entertaining haha
