KB doesnt let anybody else sell them I thought. I dont know but I thought they were only avalible direct from the manufacture.

havent you ever heard of the KB 2.1L mongoose kit from MPH? thats like 8k though.



another question... is an intercooler mandatory? I live in IN, so in the summers it occassionally sees 100 degrees... and i know them twin screws get hotter than a bitch.

Better to cough up a little more and get the intercooler. Better safe than sorry! You would have to run 6 psi without intercooler im pretty sure.

damn... well yeah, i'll just get the intercooled kit for 4999.99
The non is 3799.99 but the 9-14psi is worth it.

shit, 6 psi will only give you like 50hp

Get the IC version. KB will only sell to dealers that will do the install (I think the buy in is 20K+ too). If you want to put it on yourself you have to buy it directly from KB. You should add a wideband to that price, because having a SC without a wideband is asking for trouble.
