I may have the opportunity to buy a slightly used kit from someone local who has buyers remorse and wants to go turbo for higher HP. I appreciate that this kit has shown excellent reliability at the track which is the first criteria on my selection screen. I do have a few questions however.

The current owner went out of his way to show me how much flex there is with the induction pipe when the motor is revved. The pipe literally squeezes itself inward and is extremely pliable between my fingers. Is this an issue? The group consensus was that the pipe was being redesigned by JR to be more solid like the aftermarket silicone pipe I currently have.

Is a larger compressor kit being developed as an option? My first priority is reliability and I think I'll be happy with a flex fuel tune that delivers 275 whp on 93 and 325 on E85.
BUT if I'm not satisfied is there headroom with a smaller pulley ?

Big props to everyone racking up the laps with FI motors especially CSG! I appreciate the pioneers who lead the way.
