    Emissions Question - Are Cobra tank and/or Cobra fuel pumps 50-state legal?

    What I meant was, if I bought the procharger kit with the 42lb injectors, and then replaced those with 50lb injectors, would that be 50-state legal. I see that I wasn't clear, so I edited my original post.

    Emissions Question - Are Cobra tank and/or Cobra fuel pumps 50-state legal?

    Hello, If I get a 50-state legal supercharger kit, such as the Kenne Bell 1.7L or the Saleen Series V, and then add an 03 Cobra gas tank and/or 03 Cobra fuel pumps, would it still be 50-state legal, as long as it passes the sniffer? In other words, do the emissions inspectors visually...

    2V Question: Kenne Bell 2.2L versus Saleen Series V (2.3L)

    By the way, I found out that Birdieman4 didn't wreck his S-281-E. A Ford dealer wrecked it: http://www.mustangforums.com/m_656360/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#657286

    2V Question: Kenne Bell 2.2L versus Saleen Series V (2.3L)

    I'm trying to figure out how Birdieman4 got 550 rwhp out of the Series V. Are you saying that it was because the S-281-E had headwork done, and because someone ported the Series V intake? In other words, are you saying that the Series V intake manifold is exactly the same as the Series IV...

    2V Question: Kenne Bell 2.2L versus Saleen Series V (2.3L)

    I finally focused on the Saleen forums, and that helped, because I found out more info on the Saleen Series V blower. Here's one guy who claims to have run it at 18 psi and 550 rwhp (scroll down to Birdieman4 reply): http://www.mustangforums.com/m_503061/mpage_1/key_series/tm.htm#503853...

    What SC would you buy if money weren't an issue?

    I'm leaning toward the 1.7 KB or the Novi 2000, because I live in Cally. Otherwise, the 2.2L Kenne Bell. Or the HP twin turbo: http://turbochargedpower.com/ or the MPH twin turbo. Either way, I'd have to move out of California, I guess. Or, if I REALLY had a lot of money, I'd...

    2V Question: Kenne Bell 2.2L versus Saleen Series V (2.3L)

    Hello, I was wondering how the Saleen Series V supercharger compares to the Kenne Bell 2.2 L, for 2V Stangs. They are both twin screws, and they are approximately the same size. One thing I like about the Saleen Series V is that, theoretically, it seems like it should be 50-state legal...

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    Thanks, Jakes! That gives me even more confidence in the KB! :nice:

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    Yeah, I'm also thinking that I care much more about my rwhp on 91 octane, and less about my rwhp on 100+ octane, because a lot of states (Cally) only offer 91 octane at the pump.

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    The more I think about it, the more I think I'll go with either the 1.7 or nothing. I want to be legal in Cally, and I don't want to have to remove the 2.2 every time I get it emissions-inspected. I'd like to see how the 1.7 is, before going to the additional expense and hassle of getting...

    Really, the KB has trouble in hot weather? What kind of trouble?

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    Yeah, 400 rwph on 91 octane and 9 psi on the street, and 500 rwhp on 100 octane and 14 psi at the track, is a crazy amount of power. I'm wondering if the 2.2 would get 400 rwhp on 91 octane and 9 psi on the street (with the same torque curve as the 1.7), and maybe 600 rwhp on 100 octane and...

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    I think I see the plausibility of your argument. If the 1.7 and 2.2 are both run at 9 psi and 91 octane, then the 1.7 might have more torque in the lower rpm ranges, because the 1.7 is optimized to run at 9 psi and 91 octane, while the 2.2 is optimized to run at 15 or 20 psi and 100 octane.

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    Hmmmm. You're making a good argument for the 1.7. If the 1.7 would perform better at low rpm than the 2.2, then maybe I should get the 1.7. And, of course, the 1.7 is Cally legal, and the 2.2 is not. And, if the 2.2 would cost a lot more than the 1.7, even with the stock short block...

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    What's an "ACT"? After Cooler Temperature? The reason I'd like the 2.2, is so that, when I finally do get a forged short block, I won't have to buy another supercharger. Do you think that it would be difficult or impossible to pulley the 2.2 so that it gets 400-425 rwhp on 91 octane?

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    I've got the aftermarket hood. What I hope to do, is to install the 2.2 with my stock engine. I'll use a large pulley, so that it puts out about 400 horsepower on pump gas. Then, when my engine dies, which hopefully will be 10 years from now, I'll get a forged short block, and then crank...

    KB versus Novi 2000 - which is better for cold weather, cold startups?

    Thanks, 2000! Sounds like the KB doesn't mind cold weather. I think I'm going to try to get a 2.2, somehow... If not, then a 1.7 for sure.

    Will I pass Cally emissions with low-compression crank/rods/pistons?

    Thanks, Hop! So I guess there are at least 5 good places to get a KB dyno tuned in the L.A. or San Diego area: 1. Swanson Performance - www.swansonperformance.com 2. Chicane - Joe 3. Powertrain Dynamics in Huntington Beach - Steve 4. www.dprsocal.com - Shawn 5. Superior Auto in Orange...
