Default KB1.7 or D1sc??

Well, Some one on another Forum, is selling their KB 1.7(missing two things). I already have a Full D1sc Kit, Race intercooler.

Here is His AD:
Kenne Bell 1.7L Head Unit-I took it apart and checked the gears, the look like new! Rotors are also in great shape, everything is tight and ready to roll
Lower Intake
All bolts and brackets to mount up
Intercooler
8 Kenne Bell 36KB Injectors
3 pulleys, 9,11, and 14lb. Currently has the 14lb on it'
NIB SVT Focus Fuel Pump
Kenne Bell Tune Chip
Kenne Bell Big Air Intake Tube and Air Cleaner
Superchips 2 position chip
NIB LFP Heat Exchanger

All that this kit needs is a intercooler pump and lines. Other than that it is ready to bolt up and make some serious horsepower!


What SHould i do???? I kinda like the Fact of the Instant KB Boost, How much HP will the 1.7KB make? and i like the Fact that I dont need an Intake Manifold... Is there a Reason he is missing intercooler pump and Lines?? are they hard to Come by?

Its up to your and your personal preference basically. You'll probably make more power with the D1SC, but instant boost is fun, and you can beat that sound of a roots blower (ask me how I know)

How do you know? lol

OP...you will feel the boost above 2k rpms. Not sure why he is missing the pump/lines, only the seller can answer that. Give Kenne Bell a call and see how much the parts will cost you.

He is asking 3200 OBO... He sent me a PM if i want to Trade Kits..(He now wants High Horsepower I now want ~500 to Auto x....)

Im waiting for Kenne Bell to Open to ask about Pricing for Pump and Lines...(damn living in florida waiting on CA people to Wake up!!!)

Maybe with the Kenne Bell I wont have to Buy the $1500 Fuel System im shopping for lol!!!
