Yeah, they have the exclusive distribution rights for the Japanese market. I'm not sure if a JV was set up but it's a joint effort. Not sure who is responsible for R&D/Test & Development (could be each entity). But it goes as so:
- Australia (Bullet)
- US (Innovate)
- Japan (Cusco)

Now there are some re-sellers who might take something from one of those markets and sell it in another. I'd recommend just waiting for Innovate to finish their work on the intercooler. Chances are it will be a 100% solution. The other stuff might work/might require modification. It's the rub of tuning a new platform. I wouldn't expect a ton of drastic results from the intercooler. It's more a safety measure to control IATs. There isn't any real data published yet on the pre and post compressor temps and the delta with added boost. From the sounds of it we should see more this month.
