Here I am NA and I dream of "Whine" coming out of my motor...

 

Slam it's a 2.6 KB pushing 10 psi intercooled. RWHP final was 432.83, Torque 379.64. Internals are stock so I have to keep it conservative. Bad things happen as you go beyond 450 RWHP w/ stock internals

There are literally dozens of people going beyong 450 RWHP without any bad things happening. If you have good A/F and high octane gas, 500 RWHP is no problem. Turbo guys are getting even more safely.

 

While I agree with what your saying, I think anything over 475-500 to the wheels on stock internals and your running on borrowed time .02

 

Nice! One thing I do NOT understand though, is why some 2.6 KB videos I hear the blower screams like mad, while others seems to be near silent!!

 

My 2.6L Kenne Bell screams at WOT, but I can no longer hear it over my exhaust...

I'm looking for a video of the first test run of it with my old exhaust combo...stay tuned.



Edit: OK, well it's not the most action packed video, but a few times you get an idea of the whine it produces... Kenne Bell 2.6L at 8 psi. Exhaust was FRPP Stingers with stock manifolds and midpipe.

Yah I remember seeing that vid a while back..car sounds BADASS!! (Do you have in car videos)

Would you say the scream is comparable to a stock cobra or pullied cobra or ported pullied cobra...or what? lol :-)

Cause Im really leaning towards going Turbo but I would kill for the scream of a Twin screw (KB, and Whipple)

Off Topic, but does the Saleen give good noise at WOT aswell? (More prevelant than the a KB or Whipple?
