mrpositraction said:I never understood why you people say you don't want torque down low. You put gears in your car so you feel more torque, don't you? And not to knock centrifugals, but on the street you are not always in the 4500-6000 range to make your boost. Nice thing about KB is that you can drive it normally and enjoy the extra power. Inertia is what kills engines, ringing it neck to get boost and power is what destroys engines. Do the math!!! We have another fellow engineer in here and if he knows anything about rotational dyamics he will agree. Inertia is multiplied dramatically with rpms, that is just how it works, you are much better off with the power down low than up high (for engine sake) The torque stays consistent throughout the power band, you have it low and high. Don't be mad cause you have centri and not a twin screw
exactly, thank you very much.WRXracer said:you would think a KB blower would be faster then a centrifcle with the same boost.. but it is just not true.. yes KB makes more power down low.. but when your racing at the track you anywhere from 4000 to 6000 RPMS and the centrifcles perform way better at thoughs RPMS..
dumbass huh. Last time I check, those positive displacement blowers are on the last of everyone's list that wants real performance at the track.prsrizdgt said:From the TCCoa web site:
Yes, Mike Siska's 1995 AED T-Bird ran 10.90 @ 125.5 mph in Ohio. You can make serious power with these kits, it just depends on how serious your budget is. Mike is currently making 500 RWHP with the AED whipplecharger blower
Hey you asked for it Dumba** Being a newb has nothing to do with the ability to research and comprehend. Do you think that because you have over 2000 posts that you aren't a newb? Your comments and lack of presented evidence relevant to this subject matter prove otherwise.

noxious_mustang said:not trying to bash anyone but....in that article...a mach1 with a vortech and only 350hp....who the hell tuned that....my bone stock mach1 dynoed at 301hp 326tq at the wheels...surely a vortech wouldnt just give ya 50hp who the hell would want one anyways for that much performance.....and its 4v vs 2v that mach shouldve been puttin down around 400hp i would think
Actually, although your blower is an M-90 like the Saleen Series II, that's about the only similarity. The AED manifold and intercooler design is far superior to that of the Saleen. The Allen kits are among the best engineered I have ever seen. That's what going on my Cougar when I get around to it.WRXracer said:my blower is just like the saleen blower and I dyno the same as the saleen.. every knows that they dont make a lot of HP.. I only make 40 HP less then the roots blown 03 cobra..
