Better be a real BIG deal because money doesn't grow on treee

Below is comparison of stock vs KW kit with stock header and exhaust

Below is boost graph...peak boost is 10.23psi @ 7750rpm

From the data below, you can see that air temp increase over ambient air temp is only about 10*c (18*F)

grostoine · 11-06-2013, 06:01 PM

So when can we expect to have the kit in the mail?

CSG Mike · 11-06-2013, 06:06 PM

Why does the boost dip at 6500-7000 RPM? Is this what causes the dip in output up top?

OICU812 · 11-06-2013, 06:44 PM

Interesting positive results this far. The whole header thing is and will be abit of a negative for some folks however for sure. Regardless how much difference power wise between stock header versus whatever aftermarket brand isn't necessarily important. At least for those folks that are after a certain exhaust note that only some aftermarket headers produce.

When will you release the header? I'm looking to purchase a header over the winter as I prepare for NASA Time Trials this spring!

And hey - really liking - and am highly impressed -with this kit. Thanks for all your info @gmsii

More Phastek closeups from the Seibon SEMA Car

Got some more closeups of the kit, like the pulley that goes on the crank. Enjoy! BTW that is a nice plot on 91. Got any 93 goodness?
It appears this kit doesn't have the oil cooler, and the oil reservoir is relocated. I also have no idea where the MAF sensor is; I reckon its under the passenger side headlight from following wires haha. This must not be the final kit. The blower belt assembly sits pretty close to the accessory belt, but it should be fine. Overall its a very clean kit, has caught my attention

skunk2 will be launching a complete oil cooler kit around the same time the kit is released....we will be offering a special discount to all KW BRZ SC kit owners...special price should be under $500 complete

the sandwich adapter will also be available seperately for under $99 retail for those who all ready have all the other oil cooler components

robispec also sells a sandwich adpater that will also work

The SC oil reservoir is between the battery and the power brace. ( Top left on the picture )

I'm really surprised to see you've just tacked another pulley onto the stock pulley. You could achieve much better quality control over the axial position avoid possible angular misalignment issues by replacing the stock pulley with one that incorporates both rings. Also weight gains could be kept low with proper design and material choices.

Question.. If the drive pulley for sc belt is coming off crank pulley what if the customer has a aftermarket one such as a Raceseng, kart boy, Perrin? Some of these such as raceseng like I have are faced very different then stock one.

If its going to be sandwiching a new one on at the end wouldn't doubt if the only fitment they will confirm is stock.
