I haven't seen these details yet either, I recall it being said that it wasnt a "twin scroll", but if we looked at their other applications, it wouldn't be too hard to narrow it down..

Hasn't been posted yet.
However it has been said that there are (likely) to be 2 turbo options... 1 larger than the other (obviously)

Maybe I didn't understand what was meant by the question.

What exhaust is that?

I need to bust open my piggy bank for this kit soon.

Can this kit be purchased @ Sema

If I had to guess, I'd say they are gonna use one of their " AVO " brand turbos, most likely the 380.

AVO will you sell the UEL headers seperate? Or are they designed to have a turbo at the end of it?

Of course they are designed to have a turbo at the end of it. They have been designed for this turbo kit specifically.... I dont imagine it would be wise to try and use this configuration/spec "headers" on a N/A application..

it's not even possible.

i am sure someone out there will devise an UEL header for the car, since there seems to be a demand for it.

Looooong day on the road, but about halfway to Subiefest and 86fest.

Do actually have some updates... First day of tuning had it's issues, of course, but we did reach 240whp/222ft/lbs of torque with just 4psi of boost. 240whp was reached at 6800rpm, and peak torque was reached about 3000rpm. For comparison, we started at about 160whp/140ft/lbs, so in a general sense, we already reached our first goal (80whp gain).

It's by no means final figures, as this is by no means the end of tuning. Just getting a feel for the engine and setup right now, then we'll start ramping things up a bit. By no means is 4psi the limits of the turbo or engine, we are just cautious about this and going over everything carefully.
