When the S550 was first released in October of 2014, Kenne Bell Superchargers worked with us to build the first ever supercharged version on the planet. That car went low 10's in November of 2014, and started a wave of business that still continues to the this day.

With hundreds of systems sold in the past 3 years, and records set in half and standing mile supercharger segments, KB has been a leader in the street and race scene.

With several patents pending, I can't show very much just yet.. but believe me when I tell you that Kenne Bell is going to flip the performance world upside down on it's head with the release of this new 3.2L system. It will not be anything like your conventional KB system that you're used to seeing, and will offer the industry's most efficient, and highest HP capable package on the planet.



The 3.2L compressor is undergoing further refinement, and the surrounding infrastructure will see a huge change. Things like push-lock connectors (versus hose/clamp/NPT fittings), intercooler efficiency and design changes, and packaging improvements will all be key features.

We've already proven that the 3.2L is no slouch, making in excess of 1100whp in the older S197 and S550 system. So, stay tuned, as Boost Works and KB come together to deliver a new system in the coming months.. Believe me when I say that it's worth waiting for!

This will be interesting to see which way they go. Will it be like Whipple or like Roush or something new?
And I am guessing the new design will only be for the 2018+ mustang.

The only issue I have with mine was the hose fittings and cutting apart the evap lines. Taking the evap lines apart was the most time consuming aspect of the install to me.

Travis, have you seen any issues with vibrations after installing the Kenne Bell mounts? Mine are centered and i have massive interior rattles and the dash vibrates around 3000 to 3500 rpm.

They make some power. They have been around for a long time.

I will be shocked if this blower is not mounted upside down like the Whipples in order to fit a big ol 3.2 under the hood of a 2018!

And I bet the need for different motor mounts will be a thing of the past...of course this is all speculation

I can't put the power down with a 3.5 on e85...... spin 4th gear at 1/4 throttle.
Get some drag radials/slicks. I run MT ET radial R's on the street /Hoosier slicks/MT ET R's bias ply for the strip -nothing else is going to hold over 750 lb-ft torque at 3000 rpm :cheers:

I haven't found and rims I like yet. Are you running a trunk mounted ice box? It's 52 degrees out here and my iats get up to 125ish. I can't imagine the summer time.

Yes.
I have TIG vision-the Rule pump it came with is crap and stopped working within a 100 miles .I then went to an external 29gpm Jabsco pump which was better but still saw 160 at the end of the 148 mph pass(18 psi)
I have since upgraded to the Stewart /ligenfelter programmed pump and it is a "fire hose" as Lund had said.
My IAT's stay at no more than 40 above ambient on the street.
Not yet tried it out at the strip .

The current 3.2 is pretty stout, curious to see what else they'll do to it.
Will there be any "higher efficiency" parts that would trickle down to the older 3.2 guys?
