^^ Truly appreciate the praise, the results just keep adding to our own excitement.. This is going to be a very nice solution.

Oh and... if this doesn't give you that warm fuzzy feeling I don't know what will... This manifold looks VERY good.

After seeing the assembled manifold, I was this >< far away from posting a "MUST NOT FAP" internet meme pic right here, but I haven't been on this forum long enough to know if that's in good taste

So.
Hawt.

Not appropriate to post that you must not fap.

For this forum, you'd need to post something like this:

Alright - The test vehicle is just about wrapped up and we're moving forward on production kits this weekend. We have a customer testing a RHD configuration for us, as far as I can tell there will be zero issues with RHD compatibility.

The "other guys" vs our kit. Very pleased with the fitment and clearances we were able to get with such a bigger, internally gated turbocharger.

Alright fellas, we've put the product page together. Your order will place you next in line behind the pre-production kits.

Pricing - We'd like to emphasize, the pricing is not ONLY a reflection of the quality of work that went into these kits, we're using the highest performing and one of the most expensive turbochargers on the market. The material cost also contributes highly - the CNC'd flange alone is enough to make a grown man cry. Also, the BOV and Wastegate are INCLUDED, not an up charge!

Tuning - We'll be offering Dynotronics tuning packages in a number of configurations, Purchase hardware w/tune, Rent hardware w/tune, re-tune (for existing Dynotronics customers). If you'd like details on tuning before the product page is appropriately updated, please send us an email.

Fueling - You can choose from two different injector flow rates depending on your power expectations. We will have tunes dedicated to these injector flow rates and our EFR kit. Fuel components are discounted when packaged with a turbo kit.

Battery - We are offering a light weight, high output AGM compact battery for those looking to keep the factory location, otherwise we have a relocation kit available.

Shipping - Our shipping remains the same as every other product on our website ONLY $9 This pricing does not apply to the pre-production customers, our anyone outside of the Continental US.

Product Page HERE!

My wife dropped her mucus plug today and is now randomly experiencing real contractions instead of the crappy fake braxton hicks stuff. Sounds like my son will be here before my kit

Well now I have a problem... Do I proceed with my turbo build for my nb? Or do I sell everything and get a NC.

Ugh...

I honestly can't say enough about how much I enjoy the NC. Even bone stock the thing is a brilliant car. Comfortable, balanced, refined... add some power and suspension - you have a VERY nice car that's capable in all areas, reliably.

I know that Fab9 has their first prototype rolling around now, Joe from Dynotronics had also mentioned some basic tuning done. I'm hoping Fab can post in here with any updates he feels can be shared...

Sorry for the lack of updates, black Friday left us consumed beyond our expectations.

This past Saturday we received the material to finish the revised maf tube - The piece came out beautiful... This one is being sent off to our prototype car in TX.





We produced a number of intercoolers and changed the design once more. The new IC is a custom cast end tank, better flow, CNC outlet/inlet, quicker production but overall more expensive to produce initially. We're hoping to make some serious progress this week now that these hurdles are out of the way.
