Depends on how long this (Tuning) takes to complete
With any luck, we will be supplying a tune file (If needed) and that is it -- no hand-held device of any kind.

OK cool... to re-ask a question from earlier in this thread.. You've given a "ballparl" price here but, I was wondering how much extra ceramic bearings would be... ballpark estimate... Thanks.

[Norrin Radd]

I'll be the first to ask--unless I missed it some where--what size are the turbos? What turbine housings?

Thanks

[CamaroFreako]

Any updates?

did the car get completed?

The car has actually been "Done" for quite some time but we were/are waiting on a new tuning option to get finalized to get it up and running and tuned. The wait is a little longer than we had hoped at this point so not sure how much longer Steve wants to hang in there. Obviously we can go the Trifecta route at any time (And at this point we may do so just to get his car back to him) and then utilize the new option for future cars / kit purchases.

On our end we just need to get it up and running so we can do some testing to confirm how well the car is going to spool, what type of power it is going to make at various boost levels and such before we finalize an actual "Kit" and pricing.

I haven't posted any "Finished" pics of the kit just because there a few others (Kits) all being started / talked about / Etc. and I didn't want to provide any more of a "How-to" guide by posting finished pics of ours on a non-running car than I already have.

Once we have had the opportunity to do more testing and confirm we are 100% good as-is (No changes to turbos / filters / routing / etc) I will post more pics than you will ever care to see

I have not stated yet
Not that it is much of a secret, but I didn't want to give all the specifics until I knew what we started with is proven to work as well as it *Should* on paper. Once we are able to put the kit through its paces with numbers and such I will post every last detail of what is included

Hey Jeff.. thanks for the update! Question... what exhaust will you be testing with on the Alpha car? Is it stock?

[KMPrenger]

Hope your not waiting on HPTuners or Diablo or some big name like that to release a tune...I feel you'll be waiting for a long time. Give Vince a call and just call it a day. The man has already proven what he can do, and his customer service is more than anyone could expect.

Other than that...fantastic job and I can't wait to see this.

Well, now that the cat's out of the bag, I can say Orange5thGen seems excited about this. He didn't give any details and I didn't ask, but he did seem pretty optimisic about the tuning option. I for one can wait and see if he can. Of course, I bet he's ready to get his car back, too.

It is whatever Steve had on it when it arrived -- I honestly haven't really looked that closely to see what it is but I am sure he can let you know
