I want to say 2-3 weeks, but its allways longer! We will have 15 kits boxed and ready to go before we notify anyone that it is in stock, this way no one is waiting on any back order parts for their kits.

i think people are more interested in finding out how exactly does this kit work in terms of fuel management in detail. this will only help people to decide/discuss if this kit is a good choice for each one of our goal. Any more detail on this before the release is greatly appreciated.

We will not be selling anything seperately for a while, only the manifold. Also, we stated we are not using a piggy back controller, we use injectors that are flow matched in house, and a new maf adapter. The stock timing curve is fine, and we put down over 330 at the wheels on 93 oct, but i cant remember what boost level it was? Anything over this hp level with the larger hybrid turbo, then yes, and aftermarket piggy back controller will be need to draw out timing and adjust the fuel enrichment better. I will give more information on the release date.

no fuel management and 330 whp? That sounds impossible. That much power calls for ALOT of fuel.

Yes it does, we flow our own injectos in house, so we can perfectly match how much fuel we need

But if the ECU isnt putting enough fuel out, how do you get enough fuel going to the injectors?

Maybe I dont understand AFR's like I thought. But our cars dont adjust THAT much from normal flow. Even cars pushing 60 horsepower increases arent able to get enough fuel with a stock tune. The supercharger alone asks for to much fuel overtop of what a stock tune can handle, and thats with larger flowing injectors.

I know this is what ya do so your probably correct, but could you explain. What type of AFRs are you running?

Do you have a portotype on a tC right now so we can see real world results? Any testers running around so we can see something independant?

Scary running high HP of the stock tune... even the S/C needs a reflash with it's larger injectors....

I'm sceptical about how your are going to keep the stock ECUs AFR setup with that much additional HP, as none of the other guys, including TRD have pulled that off... even adding upgraded injectors, they then dump WAY too much fuel when not in boost on the stock ecu...

Im glad I am not the only one that thought this way. I was thinking maybe my thought process was way off.

yes, actually the first kit that was made, was sold to a driver that was in a street race against our shop car, pulled over and said "i want that kit" after they got smoked.....I will see if he can be reached, and put him on the forums. Also, ill get back to you with more info on the Fuel management part of it.....

amazingly, the stock ECU makes a lot of adjustments, compensations, and new learning curves, that not many people know.........

Some of the information regarding this turbo kit will not be released, just like turbonetics will not tell you how they tune their turbo kits. Things like turbo specs, and engine managment, are kept secret unless you buy the kit, so other kits manufactures do not have access to our R&D......

Understandable, as long as your kit has name brand parts. and not knock off items from china.
