Kenne bell 1.5 to 2.2 swap

[07GtS197]

I like how the blower pulley alignment is way off too

And the firing order seems off too.

I wanna hear it run
lets kick some tires and light some fires

 

[07GtS197]

Op are you going to respond? I enjoy the trolling.

 

[MasterDot]

Looks like you need a snout extension still . Guess what ? That was a shit ton of work to make Mediocre power

Runs fine lmao, no snout extension and bigger pulley

Ill send some soon, just working on my interior parts atm

Where lmfao, I didn't even have to change anything it perfectly aligned, guess you can't appreciate hard work

 

[MasterDot]

Oh I’m sure it did lol.

Op, why don’t you elaborate more on your setup. Maybe a walk around video of what you did and maybe you could explain how it works. Are the two extra holes for more air like the dark horse has two air inlets?

Yeah I can tell you about it, its just a welded plate in between the manifold that goes down into the engine so that it block the air, the ends are opened up to allow air to travel around through a intercooler, and then back up and down into the engine, effectively bringing down temp and amplifying sound from the supercharger as the manifold kind of restrictes the noise. It also has a custom welded turn for bypass to allow air to flow thru in times of idle or cruise so that it isn't applying constant pressure on the engine.
Attached is the mock up and progress I did for the car, I can include pics of the welding if you liked, I just follow Mr. Fosters diagram and steps.

It’s gotta be ai or something. There is no reason it should have two more openings in the plenum area. And the iac looks completely wrong too.

It's called an intercooler setup, look it up, Foster made a post way back about it

 

[MasterDot]

A triple inlet intake, never seen that before.

Again, read what I wrote, plus it seems like you really don't know anything about kenne bells, don't understand why you're making these assumptions while being uneducated.

 

[MasterDot]

I am so confused looking at it.

Just posed a new thread below, feel free to look at what I wrote, it's pretty cool, and a pretty neat setup

Why all that work for a larger unit and intercooling just to run that giant ole pulley? Is that not working against the goal of more boost?

 

[Bronco2Fan]

I have to admit I've never seen anything like that. Absolutely post up some videos if possible.

I'm 8-10lbs of boost, just the way the math worked out for that pulley, if I were to run the original smaller one I'd be 18-21lbs which would kill my engine, plus it's to keep temps down!

Yeah I will, I'm working out some last minute things before I start driving it and tuning it

Also with the IAC, which I forgot to mention, and which you pointed out, is on that way because my 1994 mustang is using 93 mustang parts including a throttle body and front accessories to run a foxbody style snout /supercharger. That's why the IAC is on the way it is, it's because of the way the throttle body is built.

You’re calling me uneducated because I’ve never seen what one person has done on the whole internet? Ok pal. Besides there’s a reason kenne bells aren’t very popular. You have to reinvent the wheel to keep them cool. Meanwhile a bolt on centri setup won’t heat soak nearly as bad and can make the same power and doesn’t have to be frankenstein’ed to work “better”.

Yes I am, because instead of asking questions or being a reasonable person you like to insult people, so next time ask and maybe you'll be met with a respectful comment instead of backlash. I'm doing it because I like it, and it's a fun project, idc about making a crap ton of power, so I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm going to continue doing what I like to do.

 

[RAU03MACH]

when you get time put it in a video
i would actually like to see hear it run
did you pick it up like that who modified it

 

[MasterDot]

I did everything myself, accept the welding, it's mild build, refreshed bottem end, b303 cam, gt40 swirl heads 64cc, gt40 intake, kenne bell 2.2 off a 4.6, now it has the whole intercooler setup! I just told the guy how to weld it and he did it for 250$ so I'm not complaining about that lol, I also pulled the entire interior myself and changed it to black and swapped harnesses in the dash, old interior was 94 new is 96 GT, and also went megasquirt Ecu for tuning I got off marketplace, but I'll send some videos soon, just finishing some kinks in the car before getting her good to go, but expect them soon!

 

[RAU03MACH]

ok let us know if you need help posting a video
some videos posted from a phone are to large and wont load
you may have to post a YouTube video then load it to the site
