Default tork tech adapter and a 2.8H kennebell?

I have been in the market for a S/C and ive narrowed my choices down to a novi 2k or a kb 2.1 or 2.6, but i was looking on tork tech and saw the adapter that they have for the 01-04 2v so they can run a termi setup. So my question is is this possible to get that adapter and then put a KB 2.8H on? And if i do that i cant be double intercooled can I? The torktech kit has a I/C and then KB has the option to have a I/C too so would it be possible to make this work? I know a novi 2k is a lot cheaper option and trust me i have not ruled it out yet but i am thinking a 2.8H KB on a built 2v block would be a pretty crazy set up so if it will work i am considering saving the money and going that route. So what do you guys think?

If you really want to do a 2.8H on your 2v, then call Tim over at Mr. Norms Garage and get this http://mrnormsgarage.com/parts/mr-no...enne-bell.html

But you have a lot of other stuff that needs upgrading before you even think about a blower like that.

Pretty much EVERYTHING needs to be upgraged/made stronger before you throw a 2.8 on there. And i mean everything lol.

Novi 2k will be the easiest and cheapest route. It will leave you plenty of room to grow from a power standpoint as well.

Choice in KBs really depends on your goals for the car. I know that guys have made over 600rwhp with 2.1L KBs with a modified inlet.

Considering you can push more than ull ever need out of a novi 2000 your wasting your money on a 2.8. LOL a lot of people have a seriously warped idea of what is usable power on the street...or even at the track.
