Oh....I thought you found a video of the same yellow "LTHLPSI" cobra that he raced. That one sounds good, but he didnt even rev it up, and blow off some boost...?

No offense, but I think CuNfUzed would get asswhipped by the "real" LTHLPSI posted
above. That car is the real deal. He had a nitrous/KB car prior to going turbo.

They're basically the same thing. They are both twin screw blowers and both hail from Opcon Autorotor in Sweden. KB direct from Opcon, where as Whipple get theirs from Lyshohlm, who where recently bought out by Opcon, although they had been making blowers under license from Opcon for some time.

I beleive there are a few differences but nothing radical.

I've never heard of anyone spinning a 2.2L KB that hard. A 2.4L KB is another
story. They shine over 25psi.


:

heres is the link the showing he was running 26lbs with a 2.2KB.
http://www.svtperformance.com/forums...ghlight=MAUROS

i know i read a thread saying he was making 710 and then it blew it. i PMd my buddy on the svt site and he knows Mauro (guy with the KB) better than me and maybe he'll know for sure. thats bugging me now.

i guess i was wrong. i verified with my buddy and he said mauro was making 640rwhp and it blew up. hmmm the 1 post says hes at 26psi, i figured that would be higher than 640 ...oh well...now hes getting a turbo kit installed

UUUUmmmmmm I believe the problem is 680rwtq has caused some problems. Or a bad master cyclinder. But still the guy knows someone who fixes them cheap. Hard to find any one who can fix them more or less cheap.
