"Just tap it in, just tap it in." They are just stinging people along. Anyone can build a nice looking kit. My opinion is that he hasn't figured out the tuning issues.

In short: **** or get off the pot.

yeah whats going on extreemeboost you guys used to keep us updated every other day and now its hard to get a response once a month.. did you cancel the project or what? you got many people including me who dont want to pay as much as RRMs kit and looking forward to the more deep testing and tuning you guys are supposedly doing..


whats going on? the personal issues were over 2 months ago

The tuning for RRMs is worth the extra money. Rob is willing to sell you a kit without tuning for the same price as this kit.

Little Update!

Hey guys, just got back from checking out Frank and them at Xtreme Boost today. Apparently, they are still working on the turbo kit for the 2008+ Lancers. They are slowly making their way there but surely will get there. Frank is very straight up cool guy. He has been through a lot lately and is a really busy person. They just relocated a big business less than two days. So give him some extra time to straighten out everything. They will also have a dyno up in this shop soon too, but supposely the dyno suppose to come in this month but will have to wait another time due to their "busy'ness".
The turbo kit seems to be well and they already have a local guy already. I'll maybe visit them again near future to see whats up. I have taken some pictures while I was there and I got to ride with Frank in his super fast Evo X across town as well. Well here are the pics.

*Note: Sorry for my picture quality and photography skills, my digital camera is old and worn. Hopefully my pics aren't too big as well.

Xtreme Boost's new place:






Frank's super fast Evo X





A 500+whp G35



The 08 Lancer turbo manifold still lives! Apparently, it still needs a little welding.



I had to take these pictures a little quick because of the time(spent most of my time riding in the Frank's Evo X). I will probably try to get more pictures later if I can.

I went to frank to drop off my car to get some piping done for the turbo kit before Kenaki went, and I took a couple pics of the header in progress almost done. Thought id share my views lol seeing as I forgot about them somehow...





you really have to see it in person to see how good of a job it is. it is absolutely amazing.
