Yeah and i think i prefer a SC myself. But i also want a KB or a Whipple. I just can't stand the procharger or vortec ones for some reason. I don't have anything really against them, it just looks weird how they are set up in the engine bay.

one thing i cant argue, KB's look badass in the engine bay.

Yeah, but what would you prefer a polished or a black regular one?

No, I was talkin about Chachi. Your comment of "your one of those guys" was exactly the same thing I was thinkin but then realized he was joking.

Anyhow, I would prefer a black blower instead of the polished one. The 2.6 would be killer but don't expect your engine to last long.

Yeah, it was a complete joke. Meaning that it'll give me hp at the front wheels when power is at the rear. At least someone got it.....Eventually

Did you run to much boost and then went boom? Or was it something else, like a bad tune.
