Default 1moreBlowerQUESTION

ok so, in the near future im going to s/c my o4gt. within the next two months.unless i order a life time supply from the hair club for men cuz im freaking out about whitch type to get. im down to two picks the k/b or a vortec. is the k/b worth the extra 4 bills i only plan on running 8lbs max but the k/b is as easy as changing a pully how easy is it to change the boost levels on a vortec. what do these kits not come with that i can count on having to buy to make the install i belive i can get as much out of the k/b with 6lbs vs the 8lbs the vortec offers. this is going to be atleast a $3500 dollar purchase and i want to be damn sure im getting everything i want for my money as far as performance and reliability.

If you are looking for a no nonsense kit with everything you need for around 4000 bucks there is nobody that can beat MPH. The kit is totally complete, the tune is awsome, you get a SCT handheld with the kit, it goes on and on.

I will never run another non MPH tune, and I would never buy a blower kit from anyone but them.

MPH > All

Vortech kit: (shipped to my door for like 3905)

KB kit, must be installed at MPH:

BTW, both the KB and vortech's are just a pully swap away from more boost, but MPH will set ya up with what your setup can handle right off the bat.

Edit: IMO for an extra 2k the KB is not worth it. If i could do it over again I would still order the vortech kit. This is only my opinion though, so take it for what its worth.

The vortech kit doesn't come with an intercooler I don't think, do you have one on your car? if so which one?

even if u dont run an intercooler you can use that methanol cooling system... they seem pretty sweet and from what i hear a few guys hear have them or plan on getting them

I have the vortech kit with no intercooler/aftercooler. 415~ WHP with a totally safe tune at around 9-10 PSI.
