That is a ton of parts lol. Should be interesting. I wonder what the power capabilities will be for the kit. Last I read, HKS was in the process of trying to lower the prices on most of their parts in North America to become more competitive with American companies which should be nice.

Sure is alot of parts, looks complete though. I believe theres an oil pan in that picture, and i see what looks like a cat. Was it ever discussed whether or not that the kit will be card cert.?

It will more than likely be designed such as their SC kit in that it is made for under 400whp and therefore has minimal "extra headroom" for power capabilities in the selection of the turbo and intercooler. I would think they will be utilizing their twin turbo system to meet the needs of the high horsepower group.

The turbo curve mentions 346ps and on the bottom curve it says 282ps.
Is the bottom curve the stock output? Because if that's the case, they are measuring crank HP (kinda), and 346ps to the crank isn't much (considering stock now is 300hp).

Looks like the same IC they used for the HKS SC . Very small

If they are going to use the 3037 turbo, then i'm sure there will be some room for power increase.
