well there really isn't a wrong choice. im extremely partial to the KB unit, but if your wanting ungodly power F1a can help out there.

what are your goals for your car?

Once again I ain't the guru but I do have 2nd hand experience. Friend at the track had a KB. He knew there were more radical power gains out there, but he really liked it's simplicity, ease of installation (did it himself), performance and sound. It had that nice hum to it, but wasn't too loud.

BALLAH!!

I vote for Kenne Bell also... theres something sexy about the kenne bell hiding underneath a faux shaker hood scoop...
You could easily get 600 from a F1A or a KB....

as far as your motor being able to handle it.... what the hell did you spend 8k on and still dont think your motor can handle 600!?!

If you want instant pavement ripping HP.... Kenne Bell
If you want progressive insane amounts of HP.... F1A

just my .02

yes kinda...the KB will give you insane pavement tearing tq the HP that comes with it just happens to be a nice byproduct.
F1a can get you ~ what do you guys think 800rwhp. turned up on some 114.

give us a list of your mods im really interested in them.
