[QUOTE="Quicktime_GT, post: 11581637, member: 49367"] I like my 2.2... It makes decent power and hasn't come apart yet. A few complaints I have with KB: It's very hard to torque the blower to manifold bolts that are underneath the inlet. They're extremely hard to get to, and are extremely hard to tighten properly. The way the inlet unbolts from the eaton makes it possible to put the inlet on after the blower is properly torqued down. HOWEVER this is likely the case with any aftermarket blower where the inlet is a solid piece from the back of the blower to the TB. The blower to manifold bolts are not as long as the factory units. It's very easy to strip the threads out of the manifold. With shorter bolts making less overall thread contact, it seems like it would only increase the likelyhood of this happening. One benefit of the shorter bolt, however, is that it makes it easier to get the bolt in the location mentioned above (below the inlet) [/QUOTE]
