Default This is what a KB sounds like

For those who wondered what a KB sounds like, here is a video taken while starting my car the first time after the KB 2.6 install.

The audio isn't too bad and gives an idea of what it sounds like. It's not too loud with the hood closed.

Belt "seems" loose.

Edit: NVM. It was just the white logo on it.

Only other things I've added is a boost gauge and a Boost-a-Spark.

However the UPS gods have been smiling on me and this weekend I've got some new parts to install. I got a Snow water/meth injection, 12psi pulley for the KB, and a Raptor shift light.

I have also ordered the CHE K-member brace with torque limiters.

This month I hope to be ordering a UCA and LCA's and a Pro-5.0 shifter.

These cars are way too much fun!

Isn't 12psi on stock internals asking for it?

It's just asking for that nice bored/stroked forged bottom end I've been wanting!

I haven't been to the dyno or track so I don't have numbers, but it is fun. While I do run it pretty hard at times I don't race it, it's a daily driver and I pay REAL close attention to pinging, so I don't think it sees the stress that some people put on their cars.

To go past 12psi not only is the bottom end a problem, but other things are getting close, like the meter, injectors, and pump. So 12 looks like the place to stop until I want to redo everything.
