That's pretty sick that the first game is against FSU.... Should be a good masacre to start the season.

Getting back on topic now lol...

Joe. What will the shop down here be mainly for? Will you be selling parts there or just doing labor and/or R&D?

Pretty big shop. We'll have a retail store front with parts in stock. We'll have a fab shop/whse in the back half of the building. We're expecting some really nice results from this.

Just spoke w/ Dezod. First time I called a shop and they didn't sound like they wanted to get off the phone or were annoyed by a potential customers inquiries. I sure hope this comes out soon or pricing at least. Sounds like a great kit and company!

jesus, if you guys could just release a kit, with it ready to ship and go around all this pre order bull ____ that everyone else has to go through, you guys will get so much business. Because it seems that there is still yet to be a reputable easy to deal with company that states they have turbo kits to sell and have no problem taking your money, but delivering the product is a different story. So please dont rush your product until it really is ready to ship. %100 of the kit, not everything but the couplings, or waiting on other vendors, just have it all lined up %100 and you will surely benefit rather than trying to be a month ahead of your own R&D.

Update 8/27!!
We shipped out the kit in the beginning of the week to Random Tech it GA for the charge pipe manufacturing, exhaust manufacturing, and more fitment/development. The chief engineer of Random Tech is designing the pipe system with us. We're also developing/paying for a full replacement exhaust, from the S-Pipe back. It will be a true bolt up, no cutting or welding, and utilize a 2.5" stainless exhaust. We came to a decision to dump the wastegate charge down under the motor (keep the engine bay clean) and not plumb it back into the exhaust. For those choosing to rout back in, please PM us before ordering so we can make arrangements to ship you the flange you need to get it finished. We feel this is the best performing, most economical option. The manifold will have multiple coating options (all Caps coating). ETA on completion of all the hardware is September 2nd. I should receive the kit in the middle of the following week, we installation and testing will begin. We are also close to the completion of the full plug and play Emanage system (costing us a lot to make). We won't install our Emanage on the Dezod tC until we try this kit out. This is for obvious reasons, as we do not want to release the harness until it's completely flawless. We will not release prices or official specs until this is all done. The kits will not be sold or released until the kinks and design is worked out to perform as consistant as the original, and only of the original is up to our standards and expectations. I'm sorry I don't have any updated pics, but we're choosing to not upload any more development pics until it's close to completion. Stay tuned for more shortly.

I highly doubt it will be emissions legal. Almost no turbo kit is. Of course this depends on your state requirements. If you plumb the wastegate back into the exhaust, recirculate the BOV, and run a hose from the crank case straight to the intake, it'll be street legal (as long as you meet the noise decibel requirements for the exhaust). Our kit will have an atmospheric BOV and wastegate, but have the crank case circulated.

So, if these kits are not emissions legal, I can't use it as a daily driver? is what you mentioned the only way around it? Will there be an option for a kit set up street legal?
Also, I'm assuming the turbo back exhaust is an optoin. Will it be an option to get all the tubing up to an axle back?

recirc bov is easy, so is recircing the wastegate, but it will still not pass emmissions

No doubt - one instance (out of very few) where I'm glad to be in Minnesota.

As i understand it, in non-california states, it might vary from county to county. do a google search for 'emissions test nevada <your county here>' My guess is, Las Vegas might have restrictions. In my example of Ohio, the E-Check counties were where metropolitian areas were (cincy, colombus, cleveland, toledo, Dayton)
