I like competition and I know ZPI does as well. But on behalf of us and Turbonetics, all of our kits for 4k come with a fuel system. They all use injector upgrades with a piggy back computer.

Your kit looks good and I support other companies developing products for the tC, but please do not mislead people to place your kits above everyone elses. It's not good business.

I am not doing that at all. Our kit comes with a full return system with a regulator. Thats what I mean with fuel system. I have not seen that yet on any other kits. I am just saying that I think our kit will be one of the better kits on the market along with the ZPI kits and so on...

I like the return fuel concept and await the results from the full install.... and hopefully, the SAFC setup sometime down the road

Finaly a shop local to me that knows the Scion. Nothing like dealing with a local company. I have a feeling we are going to get to know each other.

Good. I am glad you know about us. Check out the link in my link of my orange XB. I think I was the first on the road in chicago at the time. That XB was in turbo magazine. When you come byI will show you the magazine..

very nice kit. i especially like the short intercooler that does not require cutting of the re-bar.

I am in the Willowbrook Area and I am interested in you guys tuning my S-AFC II under 4000 rpm. Larry (AKA Flip Kid) told me about you guys and said you were the shop to go to.

^ I Think that the S-AFC II info is valuable, but also to the community outside the Illinois area...

I know a signifigant number of people would truely appreciate being able to tune our cars effectively, that have no ability to make it out to the midwest for that option.

Not only would it help out the tC community enourmously, but it was also be a great gesture from a new vendor as well...

Just nudging you in a positive direction, as I know for certain more of these messages are to come now that you've stated your ability to get the SAFC to work.

I'm sure that later they would possibly let the secret out but i know that right now they have to keep it a secret for many reasons.

The fact that it is a selling point for their kit is one of them.

Maybe they will release it for the right price?!!!

ex_dsmer when did you go there?

I went to see my car today and i too didn't know that everything was getting coated. The pipes should be back next week though and then the final stages and then the START!!!!!

I can't wait to get my car back and see how it performs!!!

I'll probably put 1,000 miles the first day i get it back from SP

Hey bigpinoytc i think i might have seen you there. I saw a filipino guy there (i'm filipino too) and i thought it might have been you because i know your car was there. I dont know if you saw my car but its SW and its got an HKS exhaust on it.
