Default Kenne Bell Teaser Pic

It's only one, I have way more as I'm doing a complete write up, but consider this a teaser pic as it's not 100% done, I still have a little more work to do which I'll finish up after work tomorrow.

Have you tested your vacuum with the kenne bell? Mine is pulling 21hg at 800 rpm. Seems a bit high and I was wondering if it was normal?

No, I have a boost gauge, but not a vacuum gauge.

thanks kweb, I am afraid something like the charcoal canister maybe clogged or something causing the car to pull more vacuum.

jthorn, which setup did you go with as far as fuel?

Right now it's a 155lb hr fuel pump, and 30lb injectors. I had an ajustable fuel pressure regulator, but it would clear the S/C, so I had to put the POS stock one back on, I might see if I can't notch out the Kirbane and try to reinstall it tomorrow, unless anybody has any input.

Just the regular, it's not the ported blowzilla. But yea, it's just barely rubbed up against the AFPR and cause the S/C not to fit, also scratched the hell out of the damn thing on the back side by the Kirbane trying to make it push it out the way to fit, but to no success. Pulled it off, dug my stock one back out after sitting in the shop for two months, and it fit perfectly.

your upper plenum (or whatever they are called now) looks different from mine. The throttle body looks like it is connected to the back of the blower. Is this on a 4.6?
