Kenne Bell tunes GOOD or BAD ?????
« on: September 12, 2010, 01:28:12 PM »
I am fixing to buy a Kenne Bell 2.1 L blower for my 97 Cobra, and am looking for anybody who has or has had this blower on there car. I am wondering about the particulars of set ups. E.g. what tune to use Kenne Bell’s chip or  have it costumed tuned, Boost- a-pump from KB or Walbro pump, what size MAF, what size injectors are you running? Fuel management, KB FMU, Spark, Boost-a-spark and the way KB says to set your car up. On there website they pretty much say leave the tuning to them with there blower and I kind of agree with them due to the quality of testing equipment they use in there R&D when they create these tunes. Far better metering and deal with a lot more parameters than the local tuner that just tweaks timing curves and things of that nature. I have the usual mods, long tube  Kooks headers 1 ¾ to 3in collector, 3 in Kooks off road X-pipe, MagnaFlow exhaust w/ no cats, JLT cai, March udp’s, and a X-Cal 3 w/ a custom tune and 410 gears and other stuff. Can anybody give me some insight on this car and blower, thanks in advance? Please feel free to chime in I know this is a broad subject but any insight will help, thanks.

A friend of mine has the 2.1 on his 2000 gt fully built. I would suggest going with the 2.8 if you want to run a crap load of boost which I mean 15+psi. The 2.1 will barely even handle 15 maxed out
