You wouldn't want to want to hypertech tune it, then spray. That would = explosion.

Let me just put every thing in perspective about Kenne Bell. I have had one on my truck for almost a year now and the power gains that they advertise with their tuneing is not accurate. I had to add exhaust and get the MTI tune. Also their customer service is the worlds worst. For a year I have been trying to get them to fix my detonation problems and they never once got close to solving this issue. They also send you a piece of **** for an air intake system which doesn't line up the right way so I have to tie the tube over so it doesn't it the water bottle and close the baffle shut. When I addressed this with them James S at kenne bell told me it was supposed to be like that and to "live with it". Stay tuned I will be posting the chain of emails back and forth. If you are considering a KB DON'T!!!!! You will only be dissapointed.

Does anyone have any recent dyno sheets on a Kenny Bell setup that I can see? I am used to the ones they used to make for older Mustangs and they were not all that great for the drag strip. They fell off way early and were generally only good for around town stomping.
I will also post my dyno sheet before and after the MTI tune

I think the twin screw design might be more efficient, but the intercooled Radix looks like a much better complete package.

Well i have heard the bad customer service before, and that is bullshit on what they told you! I am gonna spend alot of money and I want the customer service I paid for. I aint even gonna call them and give them the benefit of the doubt. I think I am going to go with the CMotorsports turbo system with the T72 for 5000
