Default Kenne Bell Dakota

Friend of mine from work owns a Dakota that is modded to hell and has a 4.7L V8 in it with a KB blower making I believe 9-10 PSI.

We did a 25,35, and two 45 MPH runs up to about 120-130ish. I had him by a few cars by about 80 then another 3+ cars from 100ish each time.

So, I am a happy camper because I thought he had a faster car than I did.

He has the Factory tune from KB, he is saving up for a dyno tune though. He is going to split the tuning software with HPPerformance(mustang shop), so I will re-race him then.

Trust me, I was plenty supprised too. [&:]

I too am surprised by the results. A stock 4.7 could pull off high 14's in the correct configuration (sc, 2wd, manual). The kenne bell's turn those things into monsters. Nice kill......

Thanks, next up is one of my friends 350z when he gets driving down a little better.

He is an auto if that matters, which it does for rolls.
