Those have been on the Helix site for months. I think more than 6 months even. Don't hold your breath.

Hi guys,

Regarding the GT series turbo kit from Helix, the kit should be available by summer. The prototype versions were made with tubular manifolds, which has been decided may not be compatible with the US market. Therefore the manifold is being cast right now. Casting takes an extremely long time (often more than 150 days) due to tooling development. I believe the turbos will be using a custom spec garrett BB cartridge, and there will be one geared towards track, and one geared towards drag.

The titanium exhaust is also being worked on, we should actually see some prototypes in the next few weeks.

Should be a pretty good year for Helix, there are some electronic components coming out in the next few months, including an electronically adjustable exhaust system (similar to Fujitsubo's Viable).

Cheers,

Gary
