I can only guess. Stock is around 460 to the wheels so my guess with the TVS would be 520 to the wheels.

Oh, I thought it would be more than that. This video shows that the KR makes around 510 to the wheels stock, but I guess it depends on the conditions.

Yeah, it depends on the conditions. I've seen stock KRs dyno around 500 rwhp. I'm thinking with stock pulley and Procal (or stock KR) tune about 560-570 rwhp. More with smaller pulley and tune.

Smaller pulley relationship:

Per .1 smaller pulley:

Stock KR blower: about 10-15hp

TVS: about 15-20hp

THANX GUYS! SOUNDS LIKE THE KR TUNE IS PRETTY VERSATILE IF WILL HANLDE A TVS EVEN WITH A SMALLER PULLEY. I'M IMPRESSED. TERUMI71, ANY DRIVABLITY ISSUES WITH THE SMALLER PULLEY? STILL SMOOTH AND CIVILIZED?

Car drives factory at all parameters with the 2.72 on tvs procal tune or stock KR tune.   As 08KR525 mentioned, all civility departs if you get on it.   No comparison to stock.  I too, feel that the car should have come equipped with this setup from the beginning.  It is so factory...and so simple.  And such a dramatic difference from stock.

Your KR is in fact very versatile in hardware and software.   Up to 800 flywheel hp versatile.   750 to be safe.

Have a great time with the tvs.  You're gonna' fall in love with your KR all over again.

Does the Kenny Bell fit under the KR hood.

This is what they say on the SPP website. "Fitting under the stock hood (minor notch on the X-brace required) and with no need for headers, cam, porting, etc., these kits offer the most ideal choice in overall power and performance."

Does the 2.8LC still fit under the KR's strut tower brace?

Did you notch yours or do you have an SS hood. If you notched it do you have any pictures.

What kind of HP did you get with the KB? Is it worth it?

Fcettner, You've got more balls than I do cutting that cf hood! Lol. The install looks super though and I bet it runs like a scalded dog. Good mod.

had ford install the new tvs today. took him only 1 hour and it was done. with an oil change and install the bill was only $242! and now i have a warranty because ford did the install. on the way home, i let it out and saw 12lbs of boost. since i live at 4300 ft, that would equate to 14 pounds at sea level. max boost before was 8 lbs so that's a 4pound increase with the stock 3 inch pulley. traction was limited because of the road temp, 45 degrees, but it really moves now. terumi71...your were right. i've fallen in love all over again. can't wait for next summer when the traction comes back.
