Title says it all..

Were thinking the Kenne Bell Twin Screw 2.6 and 2.8H will work without any issues on the GTO. We are looking for a 2004-2006 GTO for 2 days (In the beginning). Hell, i'll even come to your house if I have to.

All we need to do, is pull the intake manifold and make sure it will clear the firewall (and maybe the hood)

If we get past that hurdle, we would like to see about the possibility of creating a Kenne Bell kit for you GTO guys..

After the initial mock up, we would need the car every once in a while for fitment purposes, and parts mock up. If the customer is willing to work with us over a period of a couple of months, and the kit is released, we are willing to donate and install a full production kit at no charge. Thats right, you'll get a Kenne Bell supercharger installed for free (including the kit)

This is NOT something to take lightly. The last 2 times someone has committed to allowing us to build a kit off their car, they were all excited about getting a FREE supercharger, and didnt even think about the fact that we needed to borrow their car. Ultimately, we got sick and tired of asking when they could have their car back, so we just bought it off them..

That being said, we will need the car on and off, for a period of 4 months. It will only be 2-3 days at a time. So hopefully we can do it over the weekends.

In the end, you'll have a GTO capable of damn near standing on its bumper with the right motor in it..

Please PM me if you are interested..

Someone jump on this please!

If you were in my area you could have my GTO for 4 months for a free supercharger.

Well.....

I've got the blower, manifold, heat exchanger, and all the other parts ready to go..

I think this will be a VERY fast process. I bet you we could have a complete kit ready to go by Christmas..

Also, if someone doesnt mind, can they post some pics of the engine bay??

I'm kinda concerned about the 2.8H due to it being about 3/4" longer than the 2.6. But i guess you guys will just have to settle for 700rwtw at 2000rpms on up...


I AM READY WHEN YOU ARE!!!!!!

PM sent.

In the mean time, I could take some measurements from known points if that would help?? just tell me what you need...maybe from the front manifold mount bolts to the rear of the intake plenum would be beneficial???

Strut brace is OEM. As for rub, I don't think so, no marks on the hood insulation.

If at all possible keeping the OEM airbox would be preferred IMO.... most of the aftermarket cold air intakes, do nothing more than remove the airbox and place a high flow K&N in its place............the problem is it is just sucking in hot air from the engine compartment. There are several aftermarket so called CAI kits available, some more effective than others. This CAI kit ( http://www.volant.com/3dkls/iddb/Tfi...0150_large.jpg ) at least tries to isolate engine heat, not sure of its flow capabilities, but gives you an idea of how the OEM box is shaped once out of the car.

Some have modified the OEM box by drilling holes in the bottom, this will add airflow from in front of the wheel well area. however at this point the filter itself will become the restriction point.....I have no idea what the rating of a K&N or equivelent that would fit this box would flow?

I'll ship you my car. I have a daily driver, so I wouldn't be worried about not having it back even if it took more than 4+ months. I'll pay to have it shipped to/back. If you wanna do this, shoot me a pm and we can get everything scheduled. Yes, I'm serious.

I would love to be one of the first in oz to have one of these systems fitted, been holding out for a KB system for about 12 months, this kit looks the real deal

I have an 04 GTO and 2nd vehicle, so borrowing it for long periods of time wouldn't be a big deal to me.

I have a mostly stock 06, and would be extremely interested in this. The only modifications have been on the exhaust side. The engine is still factory sealed. The stock airbox is even in place.

Shoot me a PM and let me know where your shop is located so I can come by and we can discuss this further.
