Updates?

AVOturboworld · 08-20-2012, 06:25 PM

Japan's been on vacation for Obon for last 9 days - should be getting back into things from tomorrow.

Silverdub · 08-21-2012, 07:41 PM

will be waiting for updates then!

F5 F5 F5 !

Haha, they are getting back into the swing of things in Japan.

It's really worth mentioning here that this is going on while we are doing exhaust pieces, suspension pieces, and other parts for the BRZ/FR-S at the same time. Panel air filter's will be here in the USA from next week, for instance, and the silicone intake pieces not long after. So it's not that we are ignoring the turbo kit (far from it), we are just working on several other projects at once as well.

HAHA I feel the same way, keep on peeking back into this thread hoping for some more updates. I have not given up hope, just getting impatient LOL.

Seeing magic happening in the houses of competitive turbo-kit developers these days,...

I can't hesitate asking - what psi are you planning to stay on?

and, as usual... F5F5F5!!!

I REALL REALLY agree.

AVOturboworld · 08-26-2012, 11:13 PM

None on the kit itself. It looks like we are a little under 3 weeks away from the production parts off the line arriving in Japan.

On this side of the water, I've just taken delivery on a Hot Lava 6MT FR-S, which we will be using for testing the kit.

Literally got it only hours ago, so can't say that anything has been done to it (besides a good waxing!). That will change over the next few weeks...

subatoy · 08-26-2012, 11:18 PM

can you guys give some info on what your target PSI or WHP will be?
I would be happy with 250whp with a conservative 5psi or so.

AVOturboworld · 08-26-2012, 11:22 PM

A 5psi base with +80-100whp is our current guideline, given what we've already seen. Production testing will give more accurate figures.

I hope to see 250 whp and 180+ torque, that would make it for me.
