not gonna quote that whole thing but wow. it'd be idiotic to make such claims with nothing to back him up at this point. so lets just sit back and enjoy a warrantied turbo coming early 2013. seems like i found how to spend my tax refund.

Chop, I no longer believe you are apart of the project I am talking about but I am still happy to hear of another option. Keep up the good work. Competition is always a good thing

Maybe have options like interchangeable larger turbo setup, similar to gt30r and 35r kit.
Also many people in frs/brz arent looking for high hp. Just enough to get by. I believe 40-60 hp in a small size turbo with fast response will be perfect.

hey man lol, what's up. you get a frs/brz?

update time! :happy0180:

I would daily drive mine, I wouldn't worry about mpg, and I don't need crazy power, What I do need is crazy quick spooling low/mid range power.
1.reliability
2.more torque than HP.

EN2_Squirrel · 09-08-2012, 10:06 PM

Useable power. reliable.

TheChopShop · 09-08-2012, 10:32 PM

Been pushing to get you guys some information. We have turbos coming in and the information once those are in our maniacal hands will be free flowing.

As far as the SEMA raffle, we are waiting for the license to run the raffle. Should be early this week. And we think the raffle will be 25 per entry.

For all those asking for UEL... The stock header is already UEL. One side is 30% longer than the other.

What you're looking for is a specific sound that has to do with the angle of inclination.

where are you getting this info from? I could be wrong but it has always been said that the stock headers are equal length.
can you post some info.

So Far AVO is the only one that got the true Boxer sound with their UEL headers.
They have some sound videos that can be found on my sticky thread

Nameless measured the stock header. 30% difference in length. I could have sworn I posted this in response to you before.
