John ( @Visconti ) may chime in though, if I were him, I'd consider distancing myself from this drama. He went out to cali to help Innovate tune this product. He provided some very good news in tease form about how the kit felt and his results but, likely due to restrictions by Innovate and their partners, was unable to release any concrete info.

As a matter of fact, I could be wrong, but the first I've ever heard about John being removed from the project was in someone else's in this thread today. Unless John or Innovate confirm that it's just speculation. Or I missed something somewhere.

In spite of all this, I am still interested in this kit haha. If they're spending money to advertise they're going to sell it eventually. Once some folks have it we'll see some third party dynos. There won't be anything to hide after that. I'm still hopeful about the immediate torque output of a twin screw on this car... although waiting is getting harder and other options are looking pretty good.

I agree the biggest question is what really did happen with @Visconti and this kit? I was encouraged by his involvement and he seemed pretty excited about it while working with it. If it was performing like crap, I don't know that he would have been helping build the hype with the teaser stuff. Hopefully he's still involved and will handle the kit like he is the Vortechs. I do wish he would chime in and at least confirm whether or not that's still his plan.

I am very interested in the stage 2 tuner kit so a different blower, pully and or tune can be used. I hope they release the dates soon so I can get one... I don't want the lag of a turbo and I don't like the look of the cent SC... I want to get it and us e it installed before the trip down to Vegas. I'll be happy if I can get 12
Psi to push the hp up to 270-280 and have no torque dip.

It is NOT about ALL Americans, sort out your own issues, the minority as mentioned do not represent Americans just happens to be the loudest relationship issue holders on some forums.

To demonstrate the actual issue at hand:
Give me Give me Give me, No No No, Cry Cry Cry.

So you have nothing of value to contribute. Good to know, welcome to my ignore list.

And for the record, you'd better think again about your "Cry Cry Cry" comments. Aussies can cry just as hard when they don't get something. You should have seen the posts when it turned out OZ was the last place to get the car. But do go on believing nationality has anything to do with this. It's funny watching the ignorant try to make arguments and end up looking like fools.

Yeah, as if anyone has anything to contribute to this thread. Good win on the internet with your ignore list.

And for the people crying about getting cars later, well great that the car is here.
A minority of fools whinging just look plain stupid regardless.
Dumb asses exist everywhere, there, you win the internet again.

Cusco in Japan is taking pre-orders and expecting to start delivering by the end of April (if i am understanding the translated page correctly). Also, they are offering an oil cooler and a high boost pulley.

Note: the webpage is in Japanese. I used google chrome to translate it, which isnt perfect but is usually close enough.

So they quote just a 32% increase in power... and 40'something % increase in torque... not fantastic!

^^^ I'm assuming that's with Japanese Gas which is better than US water?

So the ricer math puts it ~220 whp and ~200 wtq (peak power). About what most were expecting. What does appear to be cleared up is whether this was with cooling or not... it was.

This is still pointless without dyno plot.

Yep...and would like to see what their higher boost pulley does to it as well...

Innovate NEVER did pre-orders for this kit. Did Cusco list a year or is there a chance they meant delivery in April 2014?

Hadnt thought about it like that. The translation made it sound like they plan on being able to ship at the end of the month. But..when i get home..i will see how the wife translates it (google's translate is decent..but could be missing something that was lost there). Hopefully i can get her to look and have a better idea on that this evening.

It just says they plan on shipping them at the end of April.

So in USD it's a little over 5 grand... What happened to 3500 dollars, or am I missing something
