I sent in the preorder form hoping to get pricing soon.

when i am trying to make power, I dump the clutch at 3500-4000rpms, every shift there after is north of 2200rpms. no value to make power that low on a motor this small. I see soem turbo kits advertising tq/power peaks in the 3000 rpm range, what do you at 6000? It makes sense to tune for 3000rpms and north, and chart accordingly

Just going to bump this one for comparison to the other numbers we are seeing.

The power output is great. But the design leaves way too much on the table.

I don't want to sound brash, but from what I can see the whp output is the only thing that kit has going for it. It needs some redesigning.

I just dont see 2000 rpms as a usable range; when I want power, its never that i put my foot down and expect to go at 2800rpms. I always shift, and want my power curve to start at 3400ish, and pull me up to 7k

I am at a total loss on folks wanting power down low. I have an audi S4, V8, the torque at 2600 is at peak, and yeah, it will hurt your neck if I floor it. there is nothing at redline tho..

you will never get that out of a 2.0L four banger.
The audi is a quad cam v8 with 4.2L of gas guzzling power

I notice even around town, I tend to shift at 3000-4000RPMs (1-3 at 3500-4000, and 4-6 closer to 3000)

I don't see the point of having it start low when driving around town its really not needed.

A lot of modern turbocharged engines are producing peak torque by 2000 rpm. The Ford EcoBoost 2.0 is one such example.

Going to talk to Iain (Litchfield) tomorrow and a few of us UK and European 86 bods will be seeing the SC car at the UK Autosport Show, Saturday week.

I expect the final map and engineering to be different from that shown to date.

Forge have done a top job on the pipes, I'm told
