Weight of the KB system

street7 · 10-06-2009, 01:07 PM

I'm curious about how much weight would be added to the front with the KB supercharger (2.1, 2.6, and 2.8)--- All three of these should have diff. weight I'm assuming.
Anyone ever weighed what they added (supercharger + components) minus stock parts no longer needed (intake manifold).

Interested to see these results. thanks.

the stock intake is about 15lbs. The 2v kb's have a lower intake manifold and intercooler attached to it so Id say thats a good 40-50lbs. just a guess. then you add the weight of the heat exchanger, pump, reservoir, and hoses too.

a good bit.... id say frostbitten is about right.(2.1l anyway)
The 2.8H is quite heavier though. Prob 60-70lbs. I'll have to weigh it and see what it really weighs

weight in terms of how much you should be concerned about it... insignificant.

Yeah, about 50-60lbs. Totally worth it!
