I have some good news for everyone. An email just went out to all of those that have emailed us asking for group buy info. We are 99.9% ready to go.

Expect to see parts, pricing, and group buy info on the website very soon.

Bump.

Rumor is Andy Hollis will be running a K24ed Miata at OLOA next year.

Very cool, please be sure to make a build thread so TrackSpeed Engineering can follow it and design a turbo kit for the K Miata, it will be out at the same time as kit for the BP Miata

Yup, and the first five buyers have paid up, so everything goes into production on Monday. I'll keep you guys posted on the order status.

Resistance is futile. We are ordering a kit for a K24A2. Not sure which car here will get it. The OGK is the windshield-less carbon paneled car we're putting together. That car was going to have the 2.0L Whammy motor but maybe not now. Other idea is putting it into the 95R. Either way, we'll have an 8000rpm 240whp N/A motor that will run on pump gas.

Please put it on the speedster. -30lb up front on that car will be extra awesome.

Also, are you going to do a build thread for the speedster at some point?

it actually looks like it will make good power, there isn't much room to fit a conventional looking manifold, this keeps the runners nice and long, they look stepped and its a 4-2-1 design with 3" collector and v bands
