I vote for a KB setup, personally. Yeah it costs more, but the instant boost of a roots or twin screw blower is crazy. I hope in the relatively near future a KB 2.4 will be replacing the Eaton on my car.

I had thought about a KB, in fact there is one in Tuscaloosa that is pretty cheap(KB 1.7). The reason I did not want to pursue the KB was the large amount of HP and Torque down low. This would be going on my daily driver, so I would not be running DR's or too many traction aids. With this in mind, I figured that there would just be too many traction issues on the street with 380-400hp/440trq at 2000rpms.

You know what Todd, consider a turbo kit. You could throw a single t-60 system on the car and be very happy. Probably would be in the same price range and be easier on the engine

Although....I doubt it will be in the same price range. Unless comparing to KB's. Since most all turbo kits for '96-up include front suspension pieces. They're usually $6000 plus.
