    Turbo or super charger

    Looking at 2 fox bodies 1 has a kenny bell 2.2 and the other one I would put an on 3turbo kit on? What one is the best way to go.

    Simpliest question ever. Kenne Bell on a pushrod motor is a waste of time. They do not make much power. Go the turbo route. I've been down both paths with fox bodies in the past.

    I agree. No kenne bell's on 302's..... You could go with a s-trim or a novi2000

    If you don't go to big with the turbo it should spool pretty fast and hopefully feel similar to the KB

    I’m not looking for a ton of power just a fun reliable street car. Around 400 t 425 hp. I have it narrowed down to 2 cars. 1 already has a kenny Bell while the other one I would pick one to put on over the winter. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%...wdgVUP_yYKqWzw
    This is the kenny Bell car. I figured some aftermarket heads and more boost I should hit 400.
    This is the other car that I could do turbo or s/c and a set or heads.

    Wow, that KB car is pretty cool. The reason no one wants the KB on a foxbody is because they're not intercooled, but it looks like that guy took care of that part already by fabbing up a customer air-to-air intercooler setup. I'm sure you could make plenty more power with heads and/or more boost.

    I'd go turbo for sure. And ull get better quality for close to the same money with b&g custom turbo out of Ohio. That's who built my original kit and it fit well. No big headaches

    X2 for B&G. Their kit with a Master Power T70 turbo made great power on a H/C/I 342 in my last fox.

    Oh and by the way the Cobra you asked about is a rocket ship! You should just buy it. Shoot me a PM if interested.

    Someone just sent me the link today to my old car on craigslist. Looks like it only has about 500 miles on it since I sold it a few years ago.

    Nope. From my Dad's place in Belle Vernon to my buddy's house in West Newton, then back to the current owner selling it in Belle Vernon.
