ROAD/RACE- Turbo my 08's NUTS
Squeek, my little guineau pig! 
Call RRM, talk to Rob, have a notepad in hand. That's the only way I see that massive question list getting answered easily.
Man....that is some serious IC piping. I guess that is one of the draw backs of having the exhaust on the back. Is there any possibility of running the piping underneath? Do we yet know the capability of the MAFS? Are you tuning just fuel or have you been able to get the timing and MIVEC under control? Are you using a universal AFPR or developing a new one? Is there commonality with any other fuel pump or injectors? Internally gated or externally? Cast manifold or tubular? Are you guys gonna support this with a full 3" exhaust? Are you or anyone else working on a clutch? Sorry there is so many questions, I am just trying to figure out whether all the supporting mods will be out at the same time and what kind of pieces will come with the kit.

Black knows me well. 3 inch exhaust is not needed. That is for sure. As for tech details of the kits, I would not share. Competitors are reading. Sorry.

Agreed, 3" is probably pushing it. Maybe once we get a 300whp 2008 Lancer pushing Evo numbers, but we're not quite there yet...

Not saying that 3" is needed with whatever the initial boost setting will be, but it would be nice to have one out there to grow into. And it would be nice to remove the cat, or add a highflow cat, and figured the easiest way to do that with a bolt on would be to go from the dp back.

jesus man! I cant even save any money with you guys producing with timeframes like that.
Anyone with past experience of their kits know how complex the install will be? IE, new injectors, fuel pump, yada yada? If I am going to buy a $4000 kit I will put it on myself, but have access only to hand tools.
Also this is gay, my SRI just became obsolete.

Isnt there a way to set up like a sequential boost controller. At lower RPMs and in low gear have a low boost setting for the CVTs. but as you gain in RPM and gear# the boost is allowed to build more. Might take initial stresses off the transmission and extend the life of a turbo cvt.
