Yes.

Not sure if Sharif has them, if he does that would be great news for you down there for sure. Thanks kjbalto for the correction.

Thanks for clarification, i was somewhat perplexed that a performance shop in Jersey has the JWT kit at thier disposal and there is little news of it.

A small correction... Jim Wolf told us $6895 and that's what we published.

I talked with Jim about a week ago. The test Z was back from CARB and it still didn't pass. He, Clark and the team are back at the drawing board.

D@mn, release a "tuner" kit already for those of us who don't have to worry about smog. How much $$$ are they losing everyday that they don't have a product to the market?

? Probably alot. They have released it, just through a few select shops. They want to insure the kits a properly installed and tuned. I know, sounds like a Pain is the *** yet the kits is worth it. PM and perhaps we can work something out. Goodluck.

Just wondering how far they (JWT) are willing to take it. I mean everytime I've talked to someone over there, it's been "about 2 more months". Do they continue to only let VRT and Performance sell and install the kit? No matter how long CARB Cert. takes? I mean my only options are to ship to Cali or NY, since I can't buy a kit and have it installed and tuned by someone like Sharif. Not trying to whine, I mean hell it's their company they can do whatever they like.

The team is out Racing all over the country starting in April. They have a big A$$ rig... Something can be arranged...

I will be @ SEMA IAS with my car in Philly for those that want to meet up let me know...

A bit pricey, yet worth every penny. We are getting great 500+ WHP numbers but the kicker, 600+ torque and all under 14 PSI. There is absolutely no lag in these small GT28s. NONE.

Are you looking for a test car...I'll send you mine if you wanna try out a JWT TT install. Sounds like a good deal to me, you get the experience and I get a TT Z. Who says you need money to go fast!!

um...I didnt mean that the kit and install would be free! Me and my big mouth.

I just meant that we'd like to get one installed and tested personally on a customer's car, although we already know the kit is amazing.

I looked on yours and jim`s site but could not find out what is included in the kit such as injectors, engine mgmt. What things are missing from the kit (like fuel pump fr Greddy). And how would you rate the install of this kit vs APS, Greddy, or even Turbonetics (I realize you stated you have not installed one yet but would like an educated guess)
thanks
