The oil pump in the supercharger is internally driven. It's an oil pump for a dry sump set up.

You can see the pan in the bottom image.

Those pics are from our personal stash taken at Premium Day 2014.

We haven't received official release yet. I have no idea what MSRP is but I'll say I am afraid too. lol

If you are familiar with HKS history you would know they never supply welded pipe as a production piece. Almost everything is always cast aluminum like the installed kit.

Once this kit is offically released and I have all of the information about it I'll post up a thread. Until then I can't say much other than the American market was instrumental in the development of this higher horsepower kit, and I'm glad it has been developed.
Any idea of release time frame? I keep coming back to look at this one, I really like how clean it is.

Still waiting as of now but I know it's close. I have dinner with HKS tonight, I'll see if I can get some info.

From what we have seen, and our meetings I think it's going to be a great kit.

We will also be installing this kit on our car once we wrap up USDM na flash editor tuning.

Someone a lot smarter than me explained that its beast to reliev the pressure as close to the compressor as possible while monitoring boost as close to the throttle body as possible.
