KB 1.5l guys... chime in with your knowledge


Well family comes first right?
I had a stang, 3 of actually and then things change with life and away they went with my sportbike to be replaced with a chevy of all things minivan. Beat the hell out of it and swapped into a 4.6 tbird lx. Yes the bird holds 3 car seats in the back.

Sooo being the guy I am needing some real power and it being 3yrs since I seen any I'm now in the process of collecting all the aftermarket parts to put into my next car/truck. Which will it be I dont know but if I go with the car it'll be either an Sn95 5L, a fox coupe or an F150 with a 351w.

I am now asking anyone with info on the 1.5L KB setup to give their opinions or specs they know of for the blower.
Your comment of go turbo or centrifical is not needed I'm buying the blower setup tomorrow. I'm just looking for info so I know what exactly I'm dealing with.

max boost?
tricks to keep the unit itself cooler?
IAC is not an issue as this is a coolzilla setup
Limits of the unit?

If your wondering what exactly I'm buying...here's a list
Kenne Bell 1.5L Blower, new spider, fresh fluid
- Holley Systemax I Lower
- Polished discharge side and piping
- Upgraded to Flowzilla intake side ( big flow increase, good to 90mm TB )
- Includes the original polished intake side good to 75mm TB
- Custom TIG welded A2A piping, all needed, all custom to fit without cutting car
- Front mount IC fits in front of stock rad, minor inner front bumper trimming
- Bypass valve with Magnusson valve, the one KB uses on Flowzilla kits
- All snout brackets and PS pump relocation brackets needed, included
- Needs bracket alteration to work on AC cars ( PS and AC pump locations are the issue )
- 2 - 6 Rib pulleys ( includes pulley puller - hard to find ) for 6 and 9 psi
- Full 8 Rib conversion setup, custom crank and blower pulley made by ASP - 12 psi
- 8 rib Alt, PS, and Cobra Water pump pulley. Includes Gator 8 rib belt.
- Few more items, including extra fluid etc.

thanks for all your help, still trying to decide if I should build a motor first or just get a stocker and go from there. It's just money right?
