Yeah, but I'm not sure if the chrome/polish is factory. The pulley is definitely not a KB piece. They used to serialize them and you could call KB and get the manufacture date, etc. Not sure if they still do that.

Yes, it's real. It's the 2.2 "Blowzilla", i.e. the first aftermarket blower for the Cobra.

They no longer manufacture it. It's small, and inefficient, generates a lot of heat and I think the 2.2 needs the catch can too. That pulley is also not OE, looks like a home drill setup. The price just seems too high to me for that setup. You shouldn't pay more than $2,300, even with the TB

With a Whipple 2.3 or KB 2.2, you'd almost certainly need E85 to hit 700 wheel, and you'd be spinning that blower to the moon. With a Whipple 2.9 or KB 2.8 you'd be right in the money spot as far as blower efficiency for 700 wheel.
