Show me something to back this up, what is your source ?

god dammit. my bank account would have been a lot better off if i didn't read this thread.
@Brian@Vortech - any plans to offer e85 maps for more aggressive tunes/more boost?

Not through us directly, but I'm sure there are tuning shops near you that would be up to the task once the time comes. All of our tuning is done with safety and reliability as priority #1 on 91 octane and with California Emissions requirements in mind.

YES! Black and chrome would be awesome, offering a kit in either black or chrome!

wootwoot · 10-22-2012, 04:21 PM

So @Brian@Vortech, what are your initial thoughts about this vs. the Innovate SC kit that will also debut at SEMA?

Hmmm, I have probably said too much already...

I don't know if Brian can tell you why for legal reasons, but I have no such limitations: TRD bought the turbines from Vortech and created their own supercharger system despite Vortech's objections to the shaft-driven design for the 2AZ engine. Vortech never officially offered support or warranty because they were simply a part supplier at that point, and all liability for the 2AZ supercharger system was with Toyota and TRD.

I'd imagine the same answer from below applies. The TC kit was not a kit made by vortech. It was a kit made by TRD(?) using a vortech supercharger. Big difference.

Are you maybe referring to a problem relating to a company that bought our compressors and made their own kit for a BMW? If so, totally different ballpark. There are dozens of companies that buy our compressors with the intent to design and sell their own systems for various vehicles - Science Of Speed, A&A Corvette, East Coast Supercharging, RIPP Modifications, Rocky Mountain Competitive Research, IPF Superchargers, Weistec, Gintani, CT Engineering, Blowerworks, VF Engineering, ESS, Dinan, Race Marque, Reinhart Automotive, ADTR...I could go on and on!

Nice 1st post BTW! If you want to try to dissuade people from looking into a company, we would appreciate it you AT LEAST make sure you are talking about the right company!

FWIW, my buddy has a Science of Speed SC on his S2000 and could not be happier.
