respdoc:

What I meant by conflicting is that you said, the 330 hp was NOT the 7 lbs boost, whereas it is! 7 lbs IS their high boost unit and that is why it doesn't need the internal beefing that a higher boost unit requires, it is a bolt on! The 280 hp is only 4 lbs boost. I e-mailed Kleemans to be sure that you didn't have some information that I was unaware of and here is the answer from Cory just to clarify:

Hello Bob-


We do indeed have two kompressor systems available to choose from.


The high-boost, intercooled system will increase HP to 330 on 7 PSI of boost ($9,500.00)


The low-boost, non-intercooled system will increase HP to 280 on 4 PSI of boost. ($6,000.00)


So to answer your question, in the email that I wrote you, I was referring to the high-boost (7 PSI) intercooled system.


I hope this helps!


Warm Regards,

As you can see, all the info. I supplied is correct as I was always talking about the 330 hp unit. I hope this helps.
