1) If I were to get the reflash right now, do you think that Hondata would give me a discount on a reflash for your Turbo when you release everything?
2) Would I be able to run the current AT reflash with your Turbo, or would this be a terrible idea?
3) I remember you had a target price of $2700-$3000, would this price include the reflash?
4) Is the prototype the AT version? ie...your car?

The price of the kit is likely to be in the $3700-$3999 range, and will include a reflash. I may be able to swing a break to those who have a reflash already, but that is unknown at this point. I am hoping to have development done by the middle or end of June.

Haha...i done the heeltoe. Learn that on drift bible! I really can't wait to hear that BOV. So does Turbo system use CAI? What type of Intake are you using in the development?

The kit will integrate it's own intake.
And a CAI really does not make sense on a turbo car...that is what intercoolers are for.

YO!! HEEL TOE..Whats good?
Hey man whats the status of your turbo kit with a reflash? If you need a 6mt I can donate my car for R&D as long as a greatly discounted kit comes with it =) Or perhaps free....I never turn down free. But realistically though where are you at with the kit? Have you started it yet?

Not really. 6-8psi is more than safe with the stock motor. It's all about tuning and design.
Plus if you wanted to double up on your head gasket you could lower compression to around 10.4:1

I hope there is an update I would rather do this than the supercharger.
