    Anyone with sinus probs? Tonsils removed?

    Start by seeing you family doctor. Let him give you a good physical and routine blood workup etc.

    Tim is a good tuner, but he's not that good a salesman.

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    One other thing. The KB seems to be much more consistent. I ran a 10.043 followed by a 10.048. My goal is to qualify at 10.1x and run 10.0x in eliminations. I believe the KB will do a better job.

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    Both runs were at Orlando under nearly identical weather conditions. The Novi had a Paxton air to air intercooler. The KB has the stock KB intercooler. The Novi was making 22 psi, the max Tim would spin it. The KB is making 20, again the max Tim will spin it. The a/c delete is 30 pounds and...

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    What mods are you referring to? I only remember the A/C delete and electric water pump worth a total of 0.08 seconds. The KB was almost 0.4 seconds quicker than the Novi 2000. I stand by my statement, the 2.2 KB is superior to any centrifugal on the street and down to low 10's or high 9's...

    KB over Saleen, I would defer because I don't know anything about the Saleen except they sure do look good.

    Changing the KB's oil

    Kenne Bell specifies Redline 50 weight synthetic race oil. I just bought 2 quarts for the local Summit Racing store in Atlanta.

    Very few things in life are a certainty. Most things are a matter of opinion. Opinions are developed through personal experience as well as input from other sources. You know nothing of my mechanical knowledge, so don't try to say how I acquired my knowledge of this. True, MPH built and...

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    That's not what I said. You are the one that cautioned people about listening to other peoples opinions. All I said is that you need to have owned and driven both to have a valid opinion. Remember, as you said, otherwise you're just an *******. Edit: Oh, did I mis-quote you? Then don't...

    Especially from someone who has not actually owned and driven both of them on the street and on the track.

    Changing the KB's oil

    Changing the oil in a KB is a lot easier than changing the oil in your engine. I believe KB specifies every 12,000 miles.

    Benefits of a dyno with SCT?

    The last thing I want to do is tune my own car. I'll leave that to the experts at MPH. :nice:

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    OK, here's the bottom line IMHO. This is based on my experience from having owned both a Novi 2000 and a 2.2 KB. For a street car, the KB is far superior to the Novi. For a track car that runs low 10's to high 9's, the KB is superior. If you want to run faster than high 9's, the Novi would...

    I was running a heavily ported Bullitt intake with the Novi and running 22 psi of boost.

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    The only significant mods I remember are the A/C delete and an electric water pump. The KB is definitely 0.3 to 0.5 sec quicker than the Novi. In addition, it's much easier to keep the belt on. The KB is definitely a MUCH superior blower to a centrifugal. Please don't come on here and...

    saleen or KB supercharger???

    My best time with a Paxton Novi 2000 making 22 psi was 10.3 at 135 mph. My best time with a 2.2 KB making 20 psi is 10.0 at 137 mph.
