My local tuner called to order a few KB's, and they asked which one, hopefully some of the local L guys that put off buying a Whipple will be buying the 2.6 KB soon, myself included

When they told me that they where going to do that paint scheem, it did not sound good. But when you see this car in person, in the light, it's bad ***. It's a lambo color. I just think he should go with black wheels, and put an 01 on the door, and maybe put GENERAL LEE on the roof! j/k It's a 408, with the kb blower. This is the reason I cant get any dyno time in, because they are on a dead line to finish. I saw it driving on the road, on 580 at 12:00 at night wedsday doing about 80mph. I think they have to break in the clutch before they can dyno tune it. Very nice car, with a lot of doe behind it.

Thats funny as hell. I was looking at the pics in the link and was like "Man, that looks a hell of a lot like Rick's shop (Synergy Motorsports) LMAO... Now I know why I cant get any dyno time. That is the Vette he was talking about they had to hurry and finish.

I just checked KB's website...

On the Home page they still advertise the truck kit as "Coming Soon"... showing the OFF-MANIFOLD setup. HOWEVER, if you click on the new C5 Corvette Supercharger package on the home page and scroll down about 1/2 page you will see that the ON-MANIFOLD kit for trucks shows as an option. "TRUCK / SUV KITS The 5.3, 6.0, 6.2 “TS” kits use the exact same kit as the Corvette except for the inlet system in front of the throttle body and some minor hardware changes." So does this mean the truck kits are now available as well? Their tech line is busy (always) so I faxed them a couple of questions. I hope they respond soon.

I have a STS SRT-10. VERY disappointed!!! I think the STS is a good design, just not for the viper engine. There are problems with the system. I ran 12.7 N/A. Best with the STS was 12.4. Last time at the track I could only get 12.9. All on street tires. I know of 5 engines that have blown a piston with the STS. Mine is coming off in June. I will be dropping the truck off at Roe racing in Jax and hopefully getting their new twin screw S/C. My vote would be on the KB to win.
