Holy crap Shiv! Those are some sweet times! The mph is really impressive. I'm sure if you practiced, and got a good launch, you'd hit at least a 125 trap with a low 11 run, INSANE. My dad is getting an Evo soon, and wants some crazy power. So, this kit uses a different turbo? How are the driving characteristics with this turbo and the stage 2? I hope it's not too laggy. Also, when is the expected release date of this kit, I bet the anticipation is killing a lot of people lol
One last question, will there be different octance maps made, or just a map for race fuel? You are the man! Keep it up. Later

Yes, there will be at least two XEDE maps, one for race gas and one for pump gas, which you can toggle back and forth between with a switch mounted on your dashboard (or in your glove box if you want to be stealthy.) 400 or 550bhp, take your pick. Just make sure you have the right gas in it
Cheers,

The kit will be available soon. But only in "turn-key" form at first. This means that we will be installing the parts and tuning the car ourselves. At this power level, I feel far more comfortable with putting it on the dyno myself and handing over a finished product to the customer. Boost response is actually quite remarkable. I'm a stickler when it comes to turbo response and this turbo makes me happy. I haven't even considered trying a smaller, more responsive turbo. I don't think it's remotely necessary.

Shiv, I've gotta say, I was quite a bit disheartened when I saw your car and 4k worth of mods (most of that cost eaten up with wheels), I couldn't rationalize your train of though. But...Im a believer, congrats, good luck and damn! Im impressed. Could you catch me up to what exactly you have done to the car, overall investment and the driveability/longevity of the motor?
