Default Pulling the Trigger on KenBell S/C

Hey fellas,

Will be pulling the trigger on a KenneBell S/C here in the next few weeks. Here's what I have so far

2000 GT, with 75mm TB/Plenum

Will be purchasing the BigBore 2.1 KB S/C 9psi
Swapping out to 42lbs Injectors
Installing a Focus Fuel Pump, w/ Boost a Pump
Steeda Fuel Rails
NGK Plugs tr6,plugs set at .025
SCT MAF 90

Am I missing anything else?

Rated at 160hp @ 9psi

It's a twin screw design

Not using the KB chip, having my local Mustang Speed Shop, who uses the SCT software to dynotune it, and tweak it a little here and there. Im not sure what I'll have at the rear by the time it's done but it's bound to be leaps and bounds over the 251RWH I have now.

Anyways, I'll have that cool sound as well! lol

Yea, definitely getting intercooled, I'll have to research the 10psi, I was trying to stay a little under the Max psi for a stock internals 4.6 just so I dont scrap it so quick! lol

well kb pulleys are 1psi less than what they advertise plus when i dynoed at 10psi i ranged from 8.9psi to 11.5 psi on the sheets. you should be fine with 10psi pulley and a safe tune.

Not me, when this 4.6 SOHC goes BOOM, Im tearing it down, parting it out, selling the KB and accessories, and going completely BUILT motor! Not sure what, but it's going to be big!

Turbo 4cyl maybe? ROFL
