Kenne Bell . . . anything bad about them?
I'm going to go with a Kenne Bell 2.6L blower 8psi intercooled kit here in about a month . . .
I just wanted to ask everyone on here if they heard anything bad about them or experienced anything bad about them.
So far, i haven't found anyone blowing the motor(gaskets or pistons) with the kenne bell without turning the boost up to insane levels for a stock stang motor.
Please let me know, this is a pretty large decision on my part.

Thanks guys. I'm pretty confident in the Kenne Bell's reliability . . . I'm only doing 8 psi and I've seen many stock stangs run 10 psi and not have problems. . . so . . .
Kenne Bell FTW!!!!
ttt anyone else?

yeah . . . too much torque. . . oh no. . . ha ha
no, thats kinda why i choose the KB. . . i love that seat pinning torque they provide . . .
plus. . . the 10 psi 2.4L could go 10's with fats and skinnies . . .i've already got the fats
im thinking 10psi with the 2.6L . . . and race gas . . . and i should be able to get a 10 sec timeslip . . .
