SOS Kit. The main issue is heat soak. I have V mounted my Heat Exchanger and Oil cooler so still get air flow to the Rad (Ian's or now Sake bomb) and have a brake duct from the headlight ducting fresh air to he filter. It will be cool, if you keep it be cool. Proper cooling will make it work great
Every KW kit is custom, because once you pull it out of the box you have to go down a laundry list of sourcing upgraded bolts and brackets and exact finite set up/instillation procedures, and then sprinkling ferry dust with a prayer for good measure if you want it to hold together more then two months. I'm not sure whats gone through the most growing pains, the original c30 kit or the current c38 cogged system. An added 12hp at a given pressure from a rotrex blower isn't worth the sacrifice in frustration, overall reliability and longevity of a Novi blower to me. SOS has perfected a kit that utilizes this blower. I just couldn't justify any other supercharger alternatives. SOS is clearly out front on kit design of any other supercharger on the market.

Just took the KW kit off my car... Keep having dumb issues and always a different bolt breaking that takes all the pulleys out with it so I end up at square one again. This time it was the bolt on the back of the S/C and was 15 minutes after I spent 2 weeks putting it all back together.... Think I am going to stay N/A for a bit. really miss the power. When the car ran it felt great. Literally broke my heart to have to take it off but it was leave it on and keep fighting dumb stuff or take it off and be able to do some trips and enjoy my car. If I S/C again it is going to be the SOS kit.
