From their website:

And all i gotta say is if this thing is reliable, holy fucking god i will buy it.


J & R has teamed up with some of the industry’s top name manufacturers and race teams, such as P2R Power Rev Racing to help produce the ultimate bolt on turbo kit for the 2004-2008 Acura TL. This kit will be available for both auto and 6 speed models.
Product Update

To date all parts are being tested for quality and reliability , we have gone to extreme levels to make sure our kits are reliable so we can offer a warranty with our kits..

Kits will consist of all necessary hardware including injectors , fuel pump, jumper harness, tuned Ecu , Intercooler, tapped oil pan (core exchange)., piping ect..

JandR has been working closely with competition clutch to produce an affordable clutch kit for 2004-2008 Acura Tl 6 speed manual ... We are totally aware of number one complaints about aftermarket clutch kits , inconsistency , hard pedal feel and violent engagement leads to destruction over a period of time so with that in mind competition clutch has engineered a disc with the capability to hold 300+ wheel torque and horsepower increase with the smooth engagement close to the stock clutch feel, they've even gone as far as working on a flywheel to offer us a disc/ flywheel setup at a reasonable price suiting our current economy... <h3>

Update 6/09/09 The car was sucessfully Retuned and made Amazing power and torque at ony 9psi The Car made 437HP 411TQ

</h3>

Just skim through the last 10 pages. You'll get the information on the power being made so far. Go further into it, and you should see how they did it.

Well worth the read, honestly.

I can't even imagine the forearms you would need to wrestle that much torque steer.
