ur car doesn't need oil pressure, cause' stock already came with oil pressure. all u need is boost gauge and electronic fuel pressure.
i dont know about ur stock clutch. but mine is all gone, can't punch the car or step on the gas hard or else car wont move, rpm climps to red line fast.
stock clutch sucks.
i plane to go with Centerforce Dual Friction from stangnet partshopper for 339.00 and steeda billet steel flywheel for 225.00. installation will about around 400.00 from GNJ Motorsport in Milpitas.

Good luck with ur KB. I love mine, eventhough my clutch is slipping badly, i am still smoke 2 SRT-4 that chased me down on highway

If your clutch is currently OK now, leave it alone until you wear it out. You'll get a few good fun miles out if it, so take'm and don't change the clutch until you need to. I evenetually went with a King Cobra, which ahs been OK, but when I change it next time I'm goign with a Macloud.

You'll love the KB! Fun and fast. I sure love mine.

Ol boy? LOL, yea, you can say that seeing I was born in 52 and know just a little bit about a few things. You guys need to get out more, because the KB potential is huge. With nothing more than bolting on the KB and some if its options to a stock motor you should be pulling in somewhere close to 400rw right off the bat. 359? Good numbers for a roots blower, but I would classify it as pretty crappy for a twin screw.

While any improvement is nice, I added the KB to my setup specifically to get into the low 400rwhp range, which I discussed with Ken at KB during the purchase and parts selection. My current 443 is better than I had hoped without longtubes, but not a big surprise to many, except those I smoke at Everland Motorway. But enviornmental conditions always play a part on any given day. All the usual bolt-ons, open up your exhaust, no cats, 98 octane gas (my Premuim over here is 98), good airflow and you'll be there too... and I've now got 71K miles on the car, the last 16K with the KB installed.
