Any OFT300 users? Chime in please.

I've been eyeballing the OFT300 package (OFH, OFT, Vortech S/C) for a while and ready to pull the trigger since Vishnu doesn't seem to be making any progress on the OFT350 package.

I was curious to know any feedback from actual users (or anyone that runs an OFT with the Vortech). How was the tune? Any knocking issues?

Are you happy with your purchase? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Oft350 is done theyre just waiting on parts. All it is though is the Sbd kit with a bigger maf and wastegate spring so it can run 300 hp. Needs individual tuning though, no ots tunes

Ah, good to know, thanks. I may end up going that route but I prefer the S/C powerband more than a turbo one. Plus I've only owned turbo cars so I'm wanting to try an S/C.

Any feedback on the OFT300 package?

This isn't accurate.

Then Chris Riggs shouldn't post inaccurate information.

He's talking about the MAF housing, not the MAF itself.

No worries. There are also a few more components to the kit than a MAF housing and WG actuator (which is different from a spring btw).

So does the kit need a remote tune? Is that included in the OFT350?

Shiv do you guys have a ballpark time you'll have this launched? My 13 FR-S has the OFH/OFT setup and I was planning on adding the vortech to it. I'm planning a build for my 14 as well over the winter when they're both sitting and am considering a turbo kit, with the OFT350 being near the top of that list. Thanks

It seems like every OFT300 thread goes straight to "The OFT350 is about to ship any day". Going back to the OP's question, does anyone have an OFT 300 and if so, any comments on it?
