Don't forget to take into consideration of fluids as well

wish i can get an idea of how much added weight the kit will be to calculate some rough estimate power to weight ratio. and most of the weight is in the front and quite up high which isnt ideal...

Also you are replacing the stock intake manifold so it should save a little bit.

Yea I think I think you are right. I went back and looked at the PDF I was looking at and they have the 210 plus listed at $4875 with intercooler but no part number. I guess it's not available to buy yet.

I could be wrong, but I think the total weight gain is in the range of 60 pounds. The stock intake is plastic, so you don't save too much there. You can offset some of the weight gain by going with one of the lighter batteries which I have read can shave off around 23 pounds. Since the battery is also mounted high I think it is a good way to offset the gain, but I have not done it myself although a lot of my track and auto cross buddies have done that.

As stated before, there will not be any issue obtaining a Sprintex/Innovate supercharger kit in the US, nor will there be any issue obtaining a CARB tune. It is not my information to disclose the who, what, when, and how much, but I can tell you all that much. This kit will remain available in the US, and a CARB approved tune will remain available with it.

Sincerely,

They will be selling the tablets directly, but no idea if they will be distributing the tunes.

This seems counterintuitive especially now that they are selling it themselves in the states.

Just send the kit over to shiv, couple of weeks later, off the shelf tuning done.

Rather than whatever they are doing, wasting time and get the same "questionable" tuner they've been using. Or even worse, a higher price for their "proprietary" version of the tablet which can only be used for this kit, due to high R&D price in Australia.

Agreed, they still won't say who exactly is tuning it but i have a few suspicions.

Inquiring minds want to know, when is the 210+ going on sale and how much will it cost?

Is there any difference between the Sprintex kit and the Innovate kit? ie. Pulley size, sensors, belt, tune, carb exception, etc? Will previous Innovate customers be able to contact Sprintex for any issues?

[SprintexUSA]

The systems are the exact same, except for our logo .

We'll take care of warranty issues or needed parts for the Innovate systems. I don't have smaller pulleys at the moment, but everything else shouldn't be a problem.

The plus blower is still a few months out. When they're ready for sale, we'll let everyone know. You will be able to get them through dealers. An exchange program is still too far out to discuss at the moment. Testing has gone very well and we have reliable and consistent results. Making hundreds of them at a time is the problem .

BTW, we addressed the bolt issue and use a new supplier for all of our bolts.

What about carb approval?
