Lightbulb Blower Questions

I'm in the market for an aftermarket supercharger. i was looking at either a works 140 or a KB. I have a friend with a KB and he loves his. I was wondering if anyone had any comparison numbers. also is it worth the extra 800$.

You really open a can of worms w/ that question...

It's best to use the button on both blowers. There's a LOT of information on the 2.

Good luck. I'm sure you'll be pretty happy with either!

Let's make this thread short:

Works 140 sucks. KB rules.

No, KB sucks. Works 140 rules.

No, they both suck. Roots are better. Works 112 rules.

No, any twin screw is better than a roots. Roots suck.

I may have left out a few details, but that's the consensus.

Oh, yeah. REM sucks/rules. JDM sucks/rules. PSP sucks/rules. . . .

I believe Danny Swanson has had them both on his dyno. With equal mods and equal boost, they made the same power. Skip

Cool

Tim,

You just came up with the Basher's CliffsNotes. I like it. Now we don't have to read through five pages of bashing. You just condensed it into one post.

P.S. You forgot "Thread Closed" at the end.

I, for one, am interested to see if this is "the post". Where we find out once and for all, which is better.
Sitting on the edge of my seat...



Or, maybe this is just an opportunity to get a free post? Nahhh

I appreciate your thoughts on the matter but the best i can tell everyone has their opinion, but no one has any real numbers. If skip is correct in that the power numbers are the same. I think i will save the extra 800$. Thanks

Get the KB and put the extra $800 towards some NOS.
