Oooh even more options I like the sound of a Rotrex unit too, any pics?

Edit: found a link to the video
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=532206483475987

A bit of a dirty looking setup... maybe just the prototype.

mmmm Rotrex C30 I'm guessing?

Side comment: Rotrex needs to put electric clutches on the rest of their lineup, not just the miniscule C8T that no one cares about.

Gained more hp and tq than most stage 1 turbo applications so far, and shows about the same hp/tq ratio (gain ratio?).

Are you expecting 275/275?

I'm hoping the Innovate gets more torque, it won't have more tq than hp but is probably our closest chance at even numbers.

I find it suspicious; I wonder if they're making less power down-low. It's impossible to tell due to the color scheme, but it looks like the stock car might be making a hair more power at 3000 RPM and I'd like to see if that trend continues farther down.

Possible but Litchfield is very highly respected, especially in the GT-R world. I don't think they would hide it intentionally if that is the case.
