2-3 Months, could be more. Just gotta wait for Toyota to give them the tools to reflash the ECU.

Turbo is capable of 500hp, I hope its low 300 wheel horsepower reliably.

So many kits on the market right now, and coming up. I think I have found my choice, and in 3 months I will be ready for F/I... Another reason is they are all to local to me so gaurenteed proper installation and fitment is a plus.

Just pesonal opinion but unless I was making a show car that manifold looks a little too overdone to apoint even when I wouldnt want the kit. Still, Awesome that more companies are making more kits, and its great that they are using a bigger turbo. Also awesome that they get a reflash....now...someone crack the damn thing so we can all do it.

The performance of the equal length manifold is outstanding. This video is a good representation of how they are better. The civic is putting down about the same HP as what an average boosted tC is putting down.

I love it! perfect for a showcar which is what I am heading for! But I would like to see #'s, price, and what is included in the kit for the price before I am sold!

yeah, who'd want to clutter their engine bay with equal-length exaust runners when they could get a sweet log style manifold that would leave their engine bay so less cluttered?!!?!

If this is true, no piggyback, stock ecu with a custom flash, this will be THE kit I will get... eventually... when I get the money...

Or you could dyno your log manifold, then switch it over to the equal length and dyno again. You could see up to a 50Hp increase on the same boost setting. Equal length works, no way around it.

Either you like the kit or you dont. There is plenty of kits to choose from out there.

I find it _VERY_ hard to believe that Toyota is just handing over the software to provide a custom tune.

*EDIT* Especially when no other manufacturer does this.

So you didnt know that World Racing and Scion are partners?

http://www.world-racing.com

The kit will be in 3 stages. 300hp, 400hp, and 500hp all based around the GT3076R.

I knew... it doesn't mean that they will actually get their hands on the code. And I wouldn't believe so much "partners" as Scion is a sponsor, which is a completely different ball game. Another reason to not believe it is the fact that this company would be in direct competition with TRD, and I highly doubt that Toyota would allow a company to compete with them and potentially lose out on thousands of dollars.
