For you guys running the kw kit. How many miles do you have on the kit and have their been any problems.

had mine for 8k miles and had 0 issues. But with either of these kits you'll have about the same reliability and customer service. Both are gr8. Both are kits that you can install and pretty much forget about.

4000+ miles no issues. KW offered to upgrade my pulleys so I had them do it.

I have had mine on the car for nearly 40k and its still running as strong as ever. The only issues I have had, have been addressed with the new pulley updates.

Can you guys post some pix on these new magical pulleys please?

How many known KW owners overspun their rotrex? I know someone local in my area (hasn't published anything yet...don't ask) who overspun and required a new engine.

all ap2 owners lol. its overspun by about 5% from KW. I hvnt heard of ANYONE blowing a supercharger or anything else solely because of the stock high boost kit. and i find it hard to believe that, that would happen. Something else is not being said.

Please dont bring in information here by saying oh my friend blew his engine b.c of his overspun blower; etc, without proof.

And even if they overspun their blower that doesnt meant you would require a new engine. You can blow your blower n still have a perfectly fine engine.
