Have you reached out to kpower? I actually paid for mine on the 2nd and started the car up on thanksgiving. I did however try paying for the kit within the first 5 minutes that it went live but was having issues (they lost my email), so maybe my order got bumped up to the first few. I did see about 10 people get their kits before me though.

So what are the rules of the TR class again? I mean all this time stripping motors down and you don't upgrade pistons/rods? Believe it or not, a motor at high psi boost still has less stress on it at 6k rpms versus a high revving (8k) NA motor. Plus you want the reliability too.

Yeah long story short.
A shop ordered it for me, They ended up getting into some sort of argument because kpower realized they would make less money having 3rd party's order the swaps so they canceled their Dealer program after one order ..me lol but it did get ordered. But other ppl who also ordered it at the exact same time already got their kit. funny how that works. |
